Example Cannabis Co

The checks

Checks of the state (CCRS) records against the monthly LCB excise reports. LCB publishes no tolerance for these; the thresholds are ours.

• Priority
  State record vs your monthly LCB excise report: 4 months compared; largest gap -11.6% (2026-03); 1 month(s) more than 5% apart.

  Why, and what to do

  3 date(s) with no sales in the state record: 2026-03-26, 2026-03-27, 2026-03-28. Resending those dates may close much of the gap.

• Review
  Trade samples: 7 sale line(s) ($240) on products named as trade samples, 2026-04-03 to 2026-05-20.

  Why, and what to do

  Trade samples are meant to be free (WAC 314-55-096), so either these were not trade samples and the product name is wrong, or they should not have been sold. Worth checking which.

• Review
  Old negative inventory: 4 lot(s) still show negative quantity on hand in the state record (-6 units).

  Why, and what to do

  None has been updated since June 2025 (the state record has held no negative stock since then), so these are leftovers: if these lots are empty, record an adjustment with its reason, as the CCRS FAQ asks.

• Review
  Reporting days: 3 date(s) with no sales in the state record: 2026-03-26, 2026-03-27, 2026-03-28.

  Why, and what to do

  Dates blank for most shops at once (2026-04-01, 2026-04-02) are not counted against any shop.

• No gap found
  Inventory adjustments: 410 count corrections (900 units, 0.6% of units sold; median shop 0.6%) and 30 units written off as destroyed, stolen or lost (0.02%; median shop 0.01%).

State record vs monthly LCB excise report, by month

We flag months more than 5% apart. The state publishes tax-reported sales about two months behind.

Average price per sale line against the area

Average price of one sale line by category against the median of other Example County shops. Pack size moves this as much as price does (a 28-pack and a single pre-roll are both one line), so read it as your mix, not your margin.

What you pay suppliers, against other shops buying the same item

Matched on the grower's own product record across 4,044 items ($656,853 of your purchases). Paid above the median shop: $2,140. Paid below: $1,310.
