Would a public company count inventories during each interim period? Yes, a public company is required to count inventories during each interim period. C. Will management be able to make reasonable estimates of inventory estimates? Why or why not? The staff believes disclosure of inventory components is important to investors. In reaching this decision the staff recognizes that registrants may not take inventories during interim periods and that managements, therefore, will have to estimate the inventor components.
