Total Annual Carrying Cost vs Average Inventory Value
Formel
How to Calculate Inventory Carrying Cost
Formula
Carrying Cost = Storage + Insurance/Taxes + Shrinkage/Obsolescence + (Inventory Value x Opportunity Cost %) Carrying Cost % = Total Carrying Cost / Average Inventory Value x 100
Carrying cost is the hidden price of holding inventory. Beyond the obvious warehouse rent, it includes capital tied up that could earn returns elsewhere, products that expire or become obsolete, theft and damage, and insurance premiums. Typical carrying costs range from 20-35% of inventory value annually.
Lösungsbeispiel
A company holds $500,000 in average inventory with $30,000 storage, $10,000 insurance/taxes, $15,000 shrinkage, and 8% opportunity cost.
- 01Opportunity Cost = $500,000 x 8% = $40,000
- 02Total Carrying Cost = $30,000 + $10,000 + $15,000 + $40,000 = $95,000
- 03Carrying Cost % = ($95,000 / $500,000) x 100 = 19%
Häufig Gestellte Fragen
Why is opportunity cost included?
Cash invested in inventory cannot be invested elsewhere. If your company can earn 8% on other investments, every dollar locked in inventory has an 8% annual opportunity cost. This is often the largest component of carrying cost.
How do I reduce carrying costs?
Implement just-in-time ordering, improve demand forecasting, negotiate faster supplier deliveries, reduce safety stock where possible, identify and liquidate slow-moving items, and optimize warehouse layout for efficiency.
