Calculate Total Inventory Cost









Formula

The formula to calculate the Total Inventory Cost (TIC) is:

\[ \text{TIC} = \left( \text{Carrying cost per unit per year} \times \frac{\text{Quantity of Each Order}}{2} \right) + \left( \text{Fixed cost per order} \times \frac{\text{Demand in Units Per Year}}{\text{Quantity of Each Order}} \right) \]

Where:

Total Inventory Cost Definition

Total inventory cost is the total cost associated with ordering and carrying inventory, not including the actual cost of the inventory itself.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{TIC} = 3.5 \times \left( \frac{50}{2} \right) + 500 \times \left( \frac{2000}{50} \right) \]

Evaluating:

\[ \text{TIC} = 20087.5 \]

The Total Inventory Cost (TIC) is 20087.5.
