This paper reviews fair value accounting method relative to historical cost accounting. Although both methods are widely used by entities in computing their income and financial positions, there is controversy over superiority. Historical cost accounting reports assets and liabilities at the initial price they were exchanged for at the time of the transaction. Conversely, fair value accounting quotes the prevailing price in the market. Nevertheless, while both methods of accounting affect financial statements, the impact of fair value accounting on the balance sheet and income statement is extreme due to the potential volatility of the method. Fair value accounting is deemed superior when compared to historical cost accounting because it reflects the current situation in the market whereas the later is based on the past. In addition, in relative terms, fair value accounting provides users with more current financial information and visibility.

Inventory control is a very important managerial function because the physical inventory of many companies involves the largest investment in current assets. The main purpose of inventory accounting is to determine periodic profit and loss through the process of bringing together the cost of goods sold with the sales proceeds in one accounting period and determining the amount of inventory to be presented in the balance sheet. This paper aims to describe the accounting for inventory from a commercial point of view. The method used in this study is qualitative in nature with a descriptive approach. The results showed that the main functions of inventory are to avoid delays in goods, loss of goods and with the presence of inventory, the company's operations can continue to run so that services to consumers can be carried out as well as possible. More specifically, the main functions of inventory are the decoupling function, economic lot-sizing function, and anticipation function.  As the inventories become subject to regulations in Indonesia, the study also highlights the purposes of calculating the income tax of inventories. Article 10 paragraph (6) of the Income Tax Law states that inventories must be valued at cost. Therefore, if the taxpayer makes an assessment based on a method other than cost, an adjustment is required.
