Reduced property tax with proper Inventory and Valuation

Reduced property tax with proper Inventory and Valuation

Movable property Valuation and Inventory is the prerequisite for determining the actual quantity and value of the property owned by the company. The valuation report in future is the subsequent basis for informed decisions in transactions, financial statements and other tax issues.

According to the law, legal persons and institutions are obliged to maintain proper accounting of fixed assets, implying the inspection of actual existence of their property for a specific period of time and mainly is used for ensuring the reliability of accounting and reporting. In such case, the company is interested to carry out the inventory and evaluation of movable property in the shortest possible time and at lower costs. At first sight, the companies find out the easiest way to allocate the employees specifically for the mentioned activities but they do not achieve the desired goal through such delegation and instead of saved time and resources, for ascertaining the actual situation they have to double costs.

Conduction of inventory and movable property valuation through the resources owned by the Company is followed by number of challenges. One of the most important challenges is the heterogeneous approach of employees involved in process. Mentioned problem is especially evident with regard to network organizations when the inventory of many different locations and items is required. In addition, due to limited work resources, in many cases the companies find it difficult to allocate the proper number of employees, materials and resources for inventory procedures thus disabled to get the desired results.

In such cases, hiring of outsourcing company is the most valuable and decent alternative. Outsource company is not interested in presenting the actual situation in an altered form; while the inventory carried out by the employees of the company itself bears a risk of improper reflection of losses and surpluses and/or condition of the property. Outsourcing company has the flexibility for management of inventory process, as the work specifics, working hours, peak periods, flows of fixed assets and resources of the client is foreseen by the service. By virtue of such approach, activity becomes flexible to the maximum extent, creating an additional comfort for client.
