Frequently asked questions

What is a good inventory turnover ratio?

It depends on category. Fashion may turn faster than durables. Compare against your own history and supplier lead times.

How do you calculate days until stockout?

Divide current units by average daily sales (weekly sales ÷ 7).

Why track inventory burn rate?

Burn rate shows how fast stock depletes so you can reorder before lost sales and rush shipping fees.

Does cost per unit affect turnover?

Turnover is unit- or COGS-based depending on method. This tool shows both unit velocity and inventory value at risk.
