To calculate the annual cost of carrying the inventory, you need to multiply the inventory value by the percentage of the inventory cost.
Given:
Inventory value: $630,000
Cost of carrying inventory: 35% of the inventory value
Step 1: Calculate the cost of carrying the inventory.
Cost of carrying the inventory = Inventory value × Cost percentage
Substituting the given values:
Cost of carrying the inventory = $630,000 × 35%
Step 2: Convert the percentage into a decimal.
35% = 35/100 = 0.35
Substituting the decimal value:
Cost of carrying the inventory = $630,000 × 0.35
Step 3: Calculate the approximate annual cost.
Cost of carrying the inventory = $220,500
Therefore, the approximate ANNUAL cost of carrying the inventory is $220,500.
