Getting a Grip on Inventory

Getting a grip on your company's inventory is a balancing act. Without sufficient inventory a company could lose customers. But too much inventory results in lost profits. Even with sophisticated software managing inventory is a tricky business, but there are methods that can help. One way, although some look at it as taking a step backwards, is to come up with an intermittent manual method of tracking stock, which includes a paper system that tracks both supply and demand. Another strategy in managing inventory is to turn it quickly. For example, in the manufacturing sector, as a general rule, a company should turn its inventory at least six to eight times a year, while firms in the distribution industry should turn at least four times a year. Also, offering occasional discounts can often be beneficial to assist moving inventory.

The Credit Manager’s Q&A Corner

QUESTION: Explain how debts from earlier bankruptcy cases are related to a current bankruptcy filing.

ANSWER: Debts excepted from the discharge in a prior bankruptcy case are not discharged in subsequent bankruptcy proceedings. This is aimed at preventing debtors from using serial bankruptcies to escape their liabilities. Usually this has little impact on the trade-credit situation.
