Stocktaking services
Computer Accounting Bureau now trading as stocktaking.com was established in 1976 and is a family owned and managed business.
Servicing Northern Ireland and ROI
stocktaking.com is a professionally qualified member of the Institute of Licensed Stock Auditors and our professional standing within the Hotel and Catering Industry has been endorsed by both The Federation of Clubs and Hospitality Ulster.
Stocktaking
Although our primary service is to the food and beverage trade; we have experience in counting and presenting count totals for all types of stock, including Hotel Spa and beauty services, Retail outlets, Garage forecourts and more.
Stock valuations
Within the hotel and catering industry you will be well aware that some financial controllers require not just end of year valuations, but quarterly and indeed monthly valuations.
Stocktaking.com can complete these period end valuations and Hand-over valuations, providing fully quantified reports as a guide to your holding quantities and costs.
Stock valuations for businesses outside the food and beverage industry; we have experience in all types of counts, including fashion, confectionary, chemist, hardware and general grocery outlets.
If you have stock, we can count it.
Consultancy
Each audit prepared by us opens with an audit summary, which is a laymans version of all management points of interest within the audit.
It will then be followed up with a personal conversation or meeting, in order to discuss any points relevant.
Our food and beverage reports cover all product (line by line) activity, including opening & closing quantities, purchases, credits, loans/transfers, costs, profit and stock variances. We do not combine 70cl and other bottle sizes in our preparations, we actually show these sizes separately, as they will inevitably carry different costs and margins.
As a part of our consultancy service, we will also prepare a health check on your current system; giving you peace of mind that you are receiving correct advice.
Our Auditing and Consultancy Services include:
- Physical stocktaking (food, beverage & general retail)
- Food & Beverage Trading reports
- Comprehensive till analysis; highlighting stock discrepancies
- Quantitative Stock Valuations, including End of Year and Handover Valuations.
- Menu Costing
- V.A.T processing
- Management advisory service for various businesses within the trade.
- Bound and itemised inventories
Reporting
We offer various services and packages as part of our stocktaking and consultancy services.

- A transfer report which shows records of any stock either in or out of loan.
