Inventories also encompass finished goods produced, or work in progress being produced, by the enterprise and include materials, maintenance supplies, consumables and loose tools awaiting use in the production process. Loose tools have a very short life and are held in large quantities. So classification under fixed asset makes it difficult for accounting.
