Even though the records of stock are updated frequently under the Perpetual Inventory approach, a physical count is still necessary to address C : customer theft and spoilage.
The Perpetual Inventory System ensures that there are lower issues with stock accounting because stock changes are recorded after every sale.
A physical count is still needed however to ensure that the stock that is recorded is the same as the actual stock. It might not be the same due to:
- Customer thefts e.g. shoplifting
- Spoilage - some of the stock may have spoiled and become unusable.
In conclusion, physical verification of stock is important to find instances of spoilage and theft.
