Today, all business transactions of a commercial enterprise - from the purchase of goods to determine the financial result - have undergone changes in the accounting [1]. The main distinguishing feature for wholesale trade is the category of buyers these are business entities – individuals and legal entities, their branches(separate units) [5]. Goods - economic good in tangible or intangible form, held by the business entity for further sale (exchange) in order to make a profit and benefit (meet the needs) of the consumer [2]. Container is an industrial product designed for packaging, storage, transportation and sale of goods in circulation, which prevents their damage and spoilage during transportation, loading and unloading, warehousing and storage [3]. The efficiency of the use of trade flows in trade largely depends on the level of organization and methods of their accounting and control [4]. According to current legislation, the concept of control is considered as an audit of public accounting, accounting, primary documents and other information on financial and economic activities of economic entities, in order to determine the accuracy of their reporting, accounting, its completeness and compliance with applicable law and regulations [6]. . Controllers in the process of their research should clearly monitor information flows related to business activities or events, from the decision to conduct a business transaction to reflect the fact of implementation in the primary documents, consolidated documents, registers of accounting and reporting [10]. The main objectives of the formation of inventories in commercial enterprises is to ensure the stability of the range on the basis of product range and rhythm of trade and technological process in stores and other points of sale for continuous sale of goods to customers and the fullest satisfaction of their demand [9]. The initial stage of inventory planning is their analysis.
