All about the new Inventory Law
What is the difference compared with the previous Law?
The main difference introduced by the new ordinance is that, from now on, the inventory report must include not only the quantities but also the value of that stock.
Why is it important?
Although it may seem like a small difference, it is of great importance. Sometimes, due to weaknesses in internal control or a lack of resources, for example, the inventory values included in year-end accounts were not always properly scrutinised, often leading to changes in the corporate income tax (IRC)
