This article proposes a collaborative model applying the S&OP methodology to reduce stock breakages in a Peruvian company in the retail sector through a purchasing plan designed by the interaction and participation of different actors in charge of the process. The results of the model are measured by the percentage of stock breaks, the demand forecast error and the increase in sales. In the diagnosis of the problem two factors were identified that cause the stock breaks. The first is caused by the delay that exists in the replenishment of inventories, due to the bad programming of delivery of products between the distribution center and the stores. The second is related to the insufficient amount of purchases caused by not properly categorizing the products, poor forecast and not having safety inventory policies. A simulation resulted in a 17% stock breakage reduction, a 17% forecast error decrease, and a 15% sales increase.

El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar el impacto de la gestión de costos de los inventarios en la rentabilidad de los restaurantes de comida criolla del distrito de Surquillo, durante el año 2018. Para ello, se recopiló datos sobre antecedentes de problemas de gestión en restaurantes y teorías de costos y rentabilidad, mediante información adecuada. Después, se realizó la justificación del tema, planteamiento del problema, limitaciones del estudio y las hipótesis pertinentes. Luego, se aplicó un enfoque mixto, como método de investigación, donde se usaron datos cualitativos y cuantitativos, además de definir la población y tamaño de muestra exactos a investigar. Para obtener los datos cualitativos, se utilizaron entrevistas a profundidad a profesionales expertos en NIIF y expertos en negocios de comida; y para la obtención de datos cuantitativos, se realizaron encuestas a doce restaurantes de comida criolla en Surquillo. También se realizó un caso práctico de un restaurante encuestado, el cual brindó información necesaria para hacer un análisis de sensibilidad sobre sus costos de ordenamiento, almacenamiento y falta de inventarios; así como ratios financieros, del plato más vendido, para determinar los impactos que generan en la rentabilidad. Finalmente, para validar los instrumentos de investigación y las hipótesis, se realizaron pruebas estadísticas, Alfa de Cronbach y Chi Cuadrado; además del análisis de los resultados obtenidos del programa SPSS y del trabajo de campo, para realizar las conclusiones y recomendaciones correspondientes. / The objective of this work is to analyze the impact of inventory cost management on the profitability of Creole food restaurants in the Surquillo district, during the year 2018. To do this, data was collected on the history of restaurant management problems and theories of costs and profitability, through adequate information. Then, the justification of the topic, problem statement, study limitations and the relevant hypotheses were made. Then, a mixed approach was applied, as a research method, where qualitative and quantitative data were used, in addition to defining the exact population and sample size to investigate. To obtain the qualitative data, in-depth interviews were used with IFRS experts and food business experts; and to obtain quantitative data, surveys were carried out at twelve Creole food restaurants in Surquillo. A case study of a surveyed restaurant was also carried out, which provided the necessary information to carry out a sensitivity analysis on its management, storage and lack of inventory costs; as well as financial ratios, of the best-selling dish, to determine the impacts they generate on profitability. Finally, to validate the research instruments and the hypotheses, statistical tests were performed: Cronbach's Alpha and Chi Square; in addition to the analysis of the results obtained from the SPSS program and field work, to make the corresponding conclusions and recommendations. / Tesis
