Introduction
What Is Inventory Record ?
Inventory records are hard copy or electronic documents that reflect how much
and what kind of inventories a company has on hand, committed (allocated) to
work-in-process, and on order
What Is Inventory Record Accuracy?
Inventory Record Accuracy(IRA) is a measure of how closely official inventory
records match the physical inventory.
By keeping accurate and complete records of each transaction, we
know where and how much we have at every point in the process.
Financial Statements
Both internal parties (management) and external parties
(shareholders and tax authorities) are consumers of this
information.

improve accuracy should not rely upon information technology for answers.
Major improvements will be achieved through better control and procedures
before there is the need to spend significant amounts on technology.
