ANALISIS PENCATATAN PERSEDIAAN TERHADAP BARANG MASUK DAN KELUAR PADA USAHA GROSIR BARANG CAMPURAN TOKO HJ BAU

Abstract

This study aims to determine and obtain a clear picture of the calculation of merchandise inventory management at the Hj Bau Mixed Goods Wholesale Business. This research is a qualitative descriptive approach. Data collection techniques that will be used include interviews with owners, managers, or employees involved in inventory management at Toko HJ Bau. In addition, documentation techniques will be used to retrieve data from the incoming and outgoing goods reports at Toko HJ Bau. In analyzing the data, researchers will use the inventory accounting analysis method. The two main methods used are the Perpetual Method inventory recording system and the FIFO (First in First Out) Method inventory valuation system. Based on the results of the research, it was found that the lack of implementation of segregation of duties related to the purchasing function and the use of inadequate manual records, led to the risk of stock-outs and imbalances in inventory. In addition, the simple organizational structure, with divided employee concentration and poorly conveyed information to the store owner, was also a contributing factor to the problem.The proposed solution is the application of the FIFO method, which can help improve the accuracy of inventory recording and the value of merchandise inventory at Toko Hj Bau.By applying FIFO, the store can optimize inventory management and produce more informative and reliable financial statements.
