What then can a qualified stock auditor do for your business? After cash, the most valuable and the most vulnerable asset is your stock. A regular stock audit will ensure that any shortages, thefts or wastage are quickly highlighted, enabling action to be swiftly taken to minimise any loss. The pub stocktaker is on site many times during the year providing up-to-date information on the state and p
rofitability of the business. This contrasts markedly with the end of year accounts prepared by the accountant, which must be viewed historically. A competent stock auditor can also offer advice based on many years experience analysing just what the figures mean to your business.
