A firm selling its product for $25,000 has overproduced, increasing inventory by 40,000 units at a cost of $15,000 per unit. What is the impact of the inventory change on cash flow?

Increasing Inventory by 40,000 units at a cost of $15,000 per unit

The Cost of producing 40,000 units extra = $40,000 *$15,000 = $600,000,000

Conclusion: As this is an additional cost incurred by the firm by increasing inventory by 40,000 unit at $15,000 per unit, it will be term as cash outflow.  The impact of the inventory change on cash flow is outflow.

there are so many examples for that in different areas, like biology experiment carried out in our lab recently.
