What usually goes wrong

  • Multi-Depot Inventory Reconciliation

    Fuel stored across multiple terminals โ€” requires daily stock reconciliation between locations with acceptable loss tolerances.

  • Fuel Hedging & Derivative Accounting

    Crude oil and fuel product hedging with futures and swaps requires proper hedge accounting per PSAK 71.

  • Volume-Temperature-Density Correction

    Fuel measured in barrels/liters but volume changes with temperature โ€” requires ASTM D1250 standard volume correction.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is multi-depot fuel inventory recorded?

Perpetual inventory per depot: receipts (from refinery/import) and issues (to industry/gas stations) recorded in real-time. Physical reconciliation performed periodically with 0.3-0.5% tolerance for gasoline/diesel. Differences booked as inventory adjustment. System must handle multi-UoM: barrels (purchase), liters (sales), metric tons (accounting).

How does hedge accounting work for fuel traders?

Fuel traders hedge with futures/swaps to protect margins. PSAK 71 hedge accounting requires: (1) Formal documentation at hedge inception, (2) Hedge effectiveness 80-125% tested retrospectively and prospectively, (3) Derivative fair value changes recorded in OCI (cash flow hedge) or P&L (fair value hedge). Without hedge accounting, P&L volatility can be extreme.
