How did you represent the September end-of-month inventories for companies that had inventories damaged or destroyed as a result of Hurricane Katrina?

Companies report inventories based on their financial records. Any adjustments to reflect the effects of the hurricane (such as a write-down) will be included in our data when companies reflect it on their records. No significant write-downs to end-of-month inventories were reported by companies for September.

Companies report inventories based on their financial records. Any adjustments to reflect the effects of the hurricane (such as a write-down) will be included in our data when companies reflect it on their records. Our review of the data reported by companies for August shows no significant write-downs to end-of-month inventories.

Based on discussions with over 1,000 respondents, fewer than 2% of companies indicated that they had inventories damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. None of them reported any write-downs for August. Most expected a write-down would occur, but were uncertain as to when it would be reflected on their records.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
