Question:
Create a mock company, your company must be a merchandiser. But, otherwise can be of any type or form.
1. Take a minute and think of a merchandiser company you’d like to open.
2. First, tell us what type of business you are opening. (You may use a previous example or a new one)
3. Which of the two types of inventory systems do you think your business would use and why? (Periodic or Perpetual)
4. Pretend you are making a large sale to a customer on credit. Post a description or a visual of a draft sales invoice for this customer. Make sure your sales invoice includes the following items:
Your company information
Date of sale
Your customer’s information
An example product you sell with name, description, price per unit, and number of units sold
Terms of sale including credit terms and shipping charges, with numerical figures for shipping charges
Any contract language necessary to further establish the terms of sale (for example, warranties, limitations on shipping, and returns)
5. How would you maintain controls over the inventory for your company? What measures would you take either from a physical assets standpoint or accounting principle standpoint?
