cost of goods sold/ Average inventory
The finished inventory, aka Cost of Goods Sold, is determined by eithera. Cost of Goods Available for Sale less Cost of Ending Inventoryorb. Using either LIFO, FIFO or Weighted Average method of cost-flow calculation.
A method of inventory accounting in which the oldest remaining items are assumed to have been the first sold. In a period of rising prices, this method yields a higher ending inventory, a lower cost of goods sold, a higher gross profit (assuming constant price), and a higher taxable income. Also called FIFO.Method in calculation in which the weighted averagezzor the period is the cost of the goods available for sale divided by the number of units available for sale. When the perpetual inventory system is used, the weighted average method is called the moving average method.
Weighted average inventory valuation method is method in which inventory purchased at any price is put together to calculate one price for allocation in contrast to FIFO or LIFO.
Weighted Average
cost of goods sold/ Average inventory
The moving average cost calculation is used to determine the average cost of inventory by taking into account the cost of goods purchased over time. This method helps to smooth out fluctuations in costs and provides a more accurate representation of the overall cost of inventory.
This is a very simple calculation. Days to Sell Inventory(or Days in Inventory) = Average Inventory / Annual Cost of Goods Sold /365 Average Inventory = (Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory) / 2 To calculate this ratio for a quarter instead of a year use the following variation: Days to Sell Inventory (or Days in Inventory) = Average Inventory / "Quarterly" Cost of Goods Sold /"90" Average Inventory = (Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory) / 2

Weighted average method which requires to use the weighted average cost per unit of inventory at the time of each sale.
Days of Supply = Total Inventory / Average daily consumption (forecasted for example). Can be calculated as a gross value using inventory values or for an individual part using volume.
Calculation of speed requires distance as well as time. No information on distance given.
Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of Goods Sold / Average Inventory and Average Inventory = ( Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory ) / 2
The EOQ or economic order point tells us at what size order point we will minimize the overall inventory costs to the firm, with specific attention to inventory ordering costs and inventory carrying costs. It does not directly tell us the average size of inventory on hand and we must determine this as a separate calculation. It is generally assumed, however, that inventory will be used up at a constant rate over time, going from the order size to zero and then back again. Thus, average inventory is half the order size.
The finished inventory, aka Cost of Goods Sold, is determined by eithera. Cost of Goods Available for Sale less Cost of Ending Inventoryorb. Using either LIFO, FIFO or Weighted Average method of cost-flow calculation.
inventory turnover ratio==cogs/average inventory average inventory=opening inventory + closing inventory/2 average inventory =4500+5500/2 =5000 inventory turnover ratio = 20000/5000 = 4
Hello - I use the value the inventory was purchased at. If you need to, then you can devalue the inventory by stating a write down on obsolete goods, or alternatively, product that you will have to take a discount on. Technically, you have a few options - LIFO (last in, first out), FIFO most common - First in, first out, and average - average is not GAAP in Canadian accounting, but is workable in the states. Hope this helps you!
