Days of Inventory measures the number of days worth of Inventory the company holds on its books.

Calculation

Days of Inventory
=
Inventory   × 365 days
Cost of Goods Sold

where

  • Inventory = Average total Inventory (= average of beginning and ending inventories). This includes Raw Material, Work-in-Process and Finished Goods inventories
  • Cost of Goods Sold = Total annual Cost of Goods Sold

Unit of measure: days (Calendar days)

Importance

A lower number of days indicate a better use of working capital. Reducing inventory frees up cash.

Notes

Days of Inventory measures all inventories of marketed products. This includes: Finished Goods, Raw Material, Work-in-Process, On-hold and Rejected. Days of Inventory reported by supply chain includes those inventories that are allocated to that specific supply chain. Returned products should therefore be reported for Reverse Logistics supply chain(s).
