Inventory Cover & Reorder Timing

Check on-hand cover and a lead-time reorder point, then size a separate target-fill order using pack multiples and a minimum purchase quantity.

Use inventory cover & reorder timing →

Cash Conversion Cycle

Combine compatible inventory, receivable and payable day estimates. Preserve a negative cash cycle when supplier terms exceed operating days.

Use cash conversion cycle →

Inventory Turnover & Days

Calculate turnover and implied holding days using at-cost beginning/end inventory and compatible period COGS.

Use inventory turnover & days →

Margin & Markup

Use one cost and selling price to compare unit profit, margin on price and markup on cost.

Use margin & markup →

Retail Shrink & Write-offs

Compare recorded and counted inventory at cost. Add only separate losses and estimate their sales-equivalent at an entered contribution margin.

Use retail shrink & write-offs →

Promotion Discount & Required Volume

Calculate the whole promotional units sufficient to preserve baseline contribution after discounting every sale and paying a fixed campaign cost.

Use promotion discount & required volume →

Stockout Contribution Exposure

Estimate demand exposed during a stockout, the share never recovered, and contribution at risk after avoided variable costs.

Use stockout contribution exposure →

Lighting Retrofit Savings

Compare the same fixture count and annual hours at two entered input wattages, then add your maintenance saving assumption.

Use lighting retrofit savings →

Returns & Refund Profitability

Model a batch of orders with partial or full refunds, return handling and your own inventory and processing-fee recovery assumptions.

Use returns & refund profitability →

Before you use these calculations

Keep inventory quantities at cost distinct from sales at retail prices.

Use a consistent period for stock counts, losses and turnover.

Discounted volume scenarios hold other assumptions constant and do not predict customer behavior.

Start with the example, replace the assumptions with your measurements, then change one input to see its effect. Save or export the scenario if you need to keep its basis.
