Compare the quantities on hand and unit prices on this year’s inventory count sheets with those in the preceding year as a test for large differences. 3. Test extend unit prices times quantity on the inventory list, test foot the list, and compare the total to the general ledger. 4. Question operating personnel about the possibility of obsolete or slow-moving inventory. 5. Send letters directly to third parties who hold the client’s inventory, and request that they respond directly to the auditors. 6.
