Average Days' Inventory on Hand
Average Days' Inventory on Hand
A measure of a company's
sales strength. One calculates the average days' inventory on hand by dividing 365 days in a year by the
cost of goods sold and dividing the result by
average inventory. This indicates how often a company must replenish its inventory, which in turn shows how long it takes to
sell its inventory.
