⏳ Surviving the Shelf: The Delightful Formula Behind Number of Days’ Stock Held§
Welcome, fellow number crunchers and spreadsheet samurais! Ever stared at your warehouse and wondered just how long your inventory sits there singing ‘Kumbaya’? Well, wonder no more, because we’re diving head-first into the wonderful world of stock measurement with Number of Days’ Stock Held! 🚀
What is Number of Days’ Stock Held?§
Think of it as the ‘hangout time’ for your inventory. It’s a ratio that essentially measures how many days, on average, your stock is pulling a staycation in your storage.
The Ultra-Glam Formula 🤓§
Ready for the magic? Here it is:
Number of Days’ Stock Held = (Number of Units in Stock) / (Number of Units Sold per Day)
If that formula seems like it requires you to work around the clock, worry not. You can also use final accounts figures. More often, we’ll see something a bit more generalized, like this:
Number of Days' Stock Held = (Value of Stocks / Cost of Goods Sold) * 365
Intriguing, isn’t it? Using the average number of units in stock can help too if you’re a fan of more granular details!
