Carrying (Holding) Costs: These costs represent the cost of storing or maintaining inventory. The more that is held, the higher the costs. When companies order too much inventory, this will lead to higher carrying costs.
Here are the most common costs associated with carrying costs:
- Warehouse Space
- Taxes
- Insurance
- Obsolescence and Shrinkage
- Material Handling
- Cost of Money Invested
After determining the values of each variable above, you can take the sum of those values annually and divide it by your Average Inventory Value to determine your carrying rate.
This table code will hold the default value in description 2 and table number 2.
