The calculation

Every line, every rate
  1. (1)Excess inventory value$8,000,000 × 6%$480,000
  2. (2)Excess carrying cost$480,000 × 20%$96,000
  3. (3)Annual cost, your inputs$82,000 + $96,000 + $36,000$214,000
  4. (4)Inventory in the pipeline$30,000,000 × 35 ÷ 365$2,876,712

Inventory above target and inventory in the pipeline are values held, not annual costs, so they are not added to (3). This calculator is illustrative and only adds up the figures you enter. The supply chain audit shows the inventory and order value exposed and does not estimate savings.
