CC Merchandising Inventory and Property Essay

Initial Post:

In this essay assignment, we are covering Chapter 5, which is an interesting and fun chapter about Merchandising Operations.

Choose ONE of the three following questions to answer.

You only need to answer one.

Many students find the difference between inventory and property, plant, and equipment to be confusing. Post a selfie (of have someone take a picture) in a store where you can see both inventory and PPE. Describe the inventory items and PPE that can be seen in your picture and why you classified them as inventory or PPE. Yes, you must be in the picture(s). You can post two pictures if necessary, but you must include both inventory items and PPE.

Another confusing topic in this chapter is paying for inventory shipping costs. Create an image that explains the shipping terms and the related accounting (journal entries). Your visual can be computer generated or hand written and posted as a picture (make sure we can read it!).

Watch this video explaining the importance of profit margins: Real World Video: Small Business: Milk Sugar Love: Profit Margin. In learning objective 6, the book discusses the different gross profit rates and profit margins for REI and Dick’s Sporting Goods. Using what you have learned, what do those results tell you about the two companies? How does that relate to what you know about those two businesses?
