So don’t form the regulation that way… it could be as simple as allowing a write off for a small percentage of buffer inventory.

  That sounds pretty easily gameable, and how do you calculate an appropriate percentage that applies to many different businesses and industries? This sort of regulatory micro-managing is generally a really bad idea unless the regulator works very closely with the business. But that means greatly increased costs of implementing the regulations.
