Jeff Thomas, manager of a clothing store located in the American Dream Mall in East Rutherford, NJ observed that over the past several months, inventory and sales were not equal. When he began to compare evening and daytime sales, he noticed that sales were staying the same, but the inventory count was lower in the evening than in the morning. Most of his employees are on alternate schedules from daytime to evening. To curb possible stealing, Jeff began taking inventory more frequently and keeping a tighter control over the employees put in charge of inventory counting and control.
