This video explains inventory classification for merchandising and manufacturing companies, detailing how inventory is reported on financial statements. We look at real-world examples, covering the relation between inventory, sales, and cost of goods sold (COGS), and breaking down manufacturing inventory into raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods. This is essential for understanding financial accounting and the balance sheet.
