Inventory note to the financial statements

This note generally shows the beginning and ending dollars amounts and/or unit amount of inventory for each forecasted year. Recall, the dollar amounts of inventory is shown on a company's forecasted balance sheet. Also, recall, the ending inventory in any given business year becomes the beginning inventory at the start of the following business year. An example of an inventory note to the financial statements is as follows;
