What are the classified different stock items?

The ABC system of inventory management

Various stock items are classified as like:

a. High value (A)

b. Medium value (B)

c. Low value (C)

Higher value items are reviewed more often and controlled through a greater extent than low value things. This is since better stock control of high value items will reduce cash tied up unnecessarily into high value raw material or finished goods stock, supporting more effectual cash flow management for the organisation. It is an illustration of a periodic inventory system.
