Inventory Systems: Perpetual vs Periodic

[@jonnymanmac8426]

Genuinely infuriating that this guy can explain a topic better in a 12 minute video than an actual lecturer you pay for can in a 2 hour lecture

[@skye-chor]

exactly. I've been so frustrated after every accounting lectures lol

[@thedog5k]

Guy works hard to creatively create a easily digestible way of understanding concepts. Lecturers just monologue at you for hours.

[@anthonygrimes1075]

I've started coming to this channel before my textbook

[@lucynaivalu8673]

You can say that again

[@AbdullahMeraj-mq8hw]

So damnnnnnnnn true

[@Hefty_Joe]

I go to college; in class I could literally sit and take notes and pay attention for an hour and I'll feel so lost. After i watch your videos i feel so much better and actually understand how you teach things. I would be failing my class if you didnt make videos. no joke

I'm a student from Bangladesh, as schools are closed due to Covid-19 and lockdown imposed by the government; It's hard to study everything on my own. So I was searching on KZbin for Accounting Contents but there is a dearth of quality content. That's when I found your channel! Your contents are so good, thanks a lot. It's depressing to see such a first-rate channel with so low number of subscribers :( Please continue to make these videos... And thanks again Mr. Superaccountant!

[@AccountingStuff]

Hey there! Sorry to hear that you're still in lockdown. Hope you're keep safe & well :)

[@Potencyfunction]

Do you have free school in Bangladesh or do you need to pay fees for school, have a job for maintaing a rent and uitility bills and food and rest of cost of living? Do you need to loan money from the Gouverment in case you dont have a job to substitute your costs of living? Or do you can work online free and live out in the streets?

[@bawol-official]

As someone who switched from Computer Science to Accounting, those data structure and algorithms classes helped tremendously with FIFO and LIFO accounting since they’re essentially a method for extracting and filling a data structure with ordered elements(e.g. Arrays, Lists, etc) FIFO = Queue and LIFO = Stack which are both fundamental to Object Oriented Programming.

Hoping that you can help here! Closing stock is valued at $1000 which then becomes the opening stock value. $50 worth of stock is brought in during the month but none of this is sold; this stock is charged to purchases. Why can we not simply increase the inventory and also decrease the purchases account? If during the next month, no stock is purchases but during this same month, $25 worth of stock is sold. At the end of this month, can we not credit inventories and debit purchases to transfer $25 from the BS to the PL?

what if you have a small service business and you don't track inventory. I just buy the parts from the supplier as I need them for my customers. is there anything bad about doing it this way?
