Abstract
Variability of demand for goods, depending on their availability and cost is a frequently observed phenomenon in the sphere of production and consumption. This paper discusses the possibility of using the ABC analysis for the inventory management system. This type of analysis makes it possible to apply various methods of inventory management for increasing the income and reducing the costs of particular products for manufacturers.
 As is known, the management process approach emphasizes the systematic study of management by defining management functions in an organization and then examining each in detail. There is a general agreement on the planning, organizing, and controlling functions.
 Traditional inventory management systems, such as the Lean Order Quantity (EOQ) model, are based on the assumptions of constant demand rate, constant inventory cost, and instant order. The EOQ assumption of instant order receipt means that the entire order quantity, that is, all units of the purchased lot is immediately received from the supplier. The Economic Production Quantity (EPQ) model weakens this assumption by including incremental order receipt, i.e. debit.
 In recent years, major advances in the sphere of management include the following elements:
 process approach
 management science
 decision support approach,
 scientific approach to human resources development, and sustainable competitive advantage.
 These four approaches complement one another in current practice and provide a useful framework for project management.
 This paper presents a realistic model of the goods production and their inventory, since ABC analysis or ABC classification is an integral part of materials management. According to this approach, the inventory is divided into three categories depending on income generation. The ABC analysis helps entrepreneurs identify the main types of products in the warehouse, prioritize the goods management based on their cost, and analyze customer demand for a specific product.
