Introduction

  • About 60% of the cost of any product is attributable to materials.

  • Consider a firm which has annual sale of Rs 10 lakhs and a profit of Rs 1 Lakh

  • Cost of materials is minimised resulting in increased profitability for the organisation

  • Inventory includes finished goods, raw materials, goods in process, and parts, components and subassemblies.

  • Manager must decide how much to order and when to order

Inventory Management

  • Inventory management is a systematic approach to sourcing, storing, and selling inventory—both raw materials (components) and finished goods (products).
  • In business terms, Inventory Management means the right stock, at the right levels, in the right place, at the right time, and at the right cost as well as price.

  • There is loss of goodwill and loss of repeat orders.

Carrying Cost

EOQ Model

  • The EOQ is a company's ideal order quantity that minimizes its total costs related to ordering, receiving, and holding inventory.
  • The EOQ formula is best applied in situations where demand, ordering, and holding costs remain constant over time.
  • One of the important limitations is that it assumes that consumer demand is constant.

ABC Analysis

C-items: 50% of all goods contribute only 5% of the annual consumption value of the items

Which product incur the highest storage and procurement costs?

B-items: 30% of all goods contribute to 15-25% of the annual consumption value of the items

Which product contributes considerably more to the total revenue?

A-items: 20% of all goods contribute to 70-80% of the annual consumption value of the items

Which products or services generate the highest profit?

ABC Analysis

C is a general category that contains the largest volume of inventory goods having the least value in terms of generating business revenue.

It is basically a mid level category in which the items included in category B are bigger in terms of volume but of less utility as compared to category A.

Products included in category A are one of the most important stock items having highest value. It is also the smallest category with minimal products.

Conclusion

  • The cost of materials constitutes about 60% of the cost of any product
  • The EOQ model helps to determine the order quantity. It can also deal with situations involving discounts and price breaks. The model is based on certain assumptions. It is based on knowledge of ordering costs and carrying costs. In practice these are difficult to determine. Selective inventory control or ABC analysis provides a practical alternative.
