Arkansas Code
Chapter 49 - Management Of Assets
§ 28-49-110. Inventories

(a)
(1) Except as provided in this section, within two (2) months after his or her qualification or as the court may direct, a personal representative shall file a true and complete inventory of all property owned by the decedent at the time of his or her death, except such interests as terminated by reason of his or her death, describing each item of property in detail and setting out the personal representative's appraisement of the fair market value of the property as of the date of the death of the decedent.
(2) The personal representative shall append to the inventory his or her affidavit to the effect that the inventory is complete and accurate to the best of his or her knowledge and belief and that the personal representative was not indebted or obligated to the deceased at the time of his or her death except as stated in the inventory.

(b) Errors or omissions in an inventory shall be corrected by supplemental inventory or the next accounting of the personal representative or as the court may direct.
(c)
(1) The filing of inventory shall not be required if all of the distributees who are competent and the legally appointed, qualified, and acting guardians of the estates of all those incompetent have filed written waiver of inventory, unless the court finds a need for filing the inventory.
(2) However, if any person asserts a claim against the estate or claims an interest therein and makes written demand for the filing of an inventory, it shall be filed unless it is shown to the court that the alleged claim is invalid or has been paid or that the person alleging such an interest in the estate has, in fact, no interest therein.

(d) Inventories may be introduced in evidence but shall not be conclusive for or against the personal representative or any person interested in the estate. Other evidence may be admitted to vary the effect thereof.
