If you are making your financial statements for an organization, it can be hard to determine where you need to report accounts. Inventory is a balance sheet account and it is an asset. It is an asset because it is something your small organization will derive economic value from in the future. With inventory, it is important to remember that your ending inventory at your year's end is your beginning inventory for the next year. Your balance sheet shows your year-end results.
