Abstract: A system and method for managing financial data for a store that enables management to track and monitor the actual cost of items sold in each store of an enterprise. The system tracks the number, type and cost of each case received at a store within an enterprise and calculates a cost for each item capable of being produced using the components of the cases. The system receives information regarding items sold by the store and retrieves a cost for the items sold. The system may use the cost and retail sales information to generate financial data. The system may also be used to determine the costs associated with the store inventory.

Abstract: A computer assisted method for evaluating inventory is provided. The method includes receiving case composition information and case cost information for a case at a store where the case composition information identifies an item of the case and the case cost information identifies cost of the case. An item cost of the item is calculated using the case composition information and case cost information and the item cost is stored in memory. Consumer code information is received for the item and the item cost of the item is retrieved. Inventory cost data is generated using the item cost.

Abstract: An aquarium liquid security system is provided. The system includes an aquarium tank, i.e., a plurality of transparent material sheets joined at the sheet edges, and a liquid detection sensor. The sensor is at least partially wrapped around the perimeter, and is electrically responsive to liquid. An alarm interface is connected to the sensor. In one aspect, the sensor includes a pair of electrically conductive ink traces printed on the outside surfaces of the transparent material sheets. In another aspect, the sensor includes a liquid-permeable strip of material, a pair of electrically conductive traces, and a liquid-permeable adhesive attaching the sensor to the perimeter outside surface. Examples of liquid-permeable materials include cardboard, burlap, cotton cloth, synthetic cloth, paper, or cheesecloth. Alternately, the sensors can be formed on the interior surfaces of the aquarium and used for the detection of a low level of water.
