Inventory is capitalized on the balance sheet as a current asset. Inventory is increaseed by items purchased (direct materials or finished goods), costs incurred in creating a product (for manufacturers), and an allocation of overhead to the creation of the product. As inventory is sold, the cost of the inventory sold is recorded by reducing inventory (a credit) and increasing Costs of goods sold (a debit).

Revaluation of inventory has no net effect on the cashflow statement as there has been no movement in cash. If the value of inventory is increased, the debit entry to inventory revaluation is negated by the credit entry to the revaluation reserve / shareholders' funds. If the value of inventory is decreased (more common), the credit entry to inventory writedown is negated by the debit entry as an expense or cost of sales item through the "statement of financial position" to retained earnings / shareholders' funds. Treatment and disclosure of course would vary depending on the materiality, timing, accounting standards applicable to the jurisdiction and legislative / regulatory requirements with which the entity is obliged to comply.

Debit is the left side of accounting statement and Credit is the right side of accounting statement. By debit we mean something comes inside the organization and by credit we mean, something goes outside the organization. That means debit means inflow and credit means outflow.
