But the guys in Accounts Receivable are now happy that they don't need to
process bitsa invoices for spares. Nice big orders now for shiny new stock, and
all the spares are going to the repairs dept for guarantee work.
Seriously, what would the IRS treatment be if they gave it all away on a "come
collect - take what you want" basis?
My heart says this would be preferable to the skip, and business costs would be
roughly similar, but.....
Anyway, this isn't the accountant's mailing list, so suffice it to say that for
business reasons, if not taxation reasons, this is not the last time that good
stock will get dumped.
