Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
An actual physical count of goods on hand is taken at the end of each period for which financial statements are to be prepared. The goods are counted, weighed or measured, then extended at unit costs to derive the inventory valuation. When a periodic inventory system is used, end-of-the period entries are required for (a) transferring opening inventory to expense and (b) recording the ending inventory. 6, record 1, English, - periodic%20inventory

Méthode de tenue de la comptabilité des stocks qui consiste à déterminer périodiquement (le plus souvent à la fin de chaque exercice) la quantité et la valeur des articles stockés en procédant à un dénombrement de ces derniers. 2, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20de%20l%27inventaire%20p%C3%A9riodique
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Selon cette méthode, on obtient le coût d'achat des sorties (ou coût des marchandises vendues) en ajoutant au stock initial les achats de l'exercice et en retranchant de ce total le stock final. Contrairement à la méthode de l'inventaire permanent, cette méthode ne permet pas de connaître à tout moment la quantité et la valeur des articles en stock. 2, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20de%20l%27inventaire%20p%C3%A9riodique
