Notes for Produce Stand Sales and Inventory

Overall we lost $91.86 on 1/15/2010 and $72.80 on 1/22/2010. In addition, there was $20.80 missing from our ending balance on 1/15 and $13.29 missing on 1/22. Most likely, this could be attributed to error in our accounting of beginning and ending amounts of each produce item.

In the future I would suggest weighing and counting the ALBA produce as well as the farm produce. Also, try to be as accurate as possible when weighing, counting and writing in the starting and ending balances for each item.

In regards to transferred items, some of the ending amounts were too small to be transferred to catering. For instance, the carrots (1.5#) and radishes (2.62#) on 1/15, and the red cabbage(1.75#) and radishes (.82#) on 1/22 should have been considered obsolete rather than transferable.
