The Monthly Inventory

I am amazed whenever I hear that a restaurant does not take a fiscal inventory each and every month. By fiscal inventory I mean counting what is on hand at the end of the month and extending the value. In order for the monthly income statement to reflect accurately the cost of food consumed and sold, you must take a complete food inventory. There is no substitute or shortcut for taking a fiscal count of food, beverages, and supplies if you expect your cost ratios and percentage to show what is actually taking place in your restaurant.

You wont know if you don't count.
