Abstract
This study aims to explore the relationship between inventory and business operations as businesses increasingly focus on the strategic management of inventory. Inventory, or stock, refers to a catalog of items, components, and raw materials that a firm regularly uses or sells. The study starts by highlighting the significance of inventory in measuring a firm’s financial position, profitability, and liquidity. It then focuses on raw materials, work-in-process, finished goods, pending inventories, demand fluctuations, festive influences, and financial constraints. The paper begins with a detailed literature review of inventory types and factors that affect them. The study proposes the hypothesis that inventory changes are closely related to holidays, demand, and the firm's financial position. This paper examines the impact of holidays, market demand, and a firm’s financial position on inventories. It concludes that inventory management significantly affects firms’ operations and calls for further research on the relationship between inventory levels, cost of capital, and profitability to optimize inventory management for sustainable development.
