HOW IT WORKS

Turn revenue, cost of goods, and your average inventory into GMROI — how many gross-margin dollars each inventory dollar returns.

1
Enter your numbers
Type annual revenue, annual COGS, and the average value of inventory you hold at cost.
2
We compute GMROI
Gross margin $ = revenue − COGS. GMROI = gross margin $ ÷ average inventory cost. Turns = COGS ÷ average inventory.
3
Use the result
Above $1 means the category earns more than it ties up. Compare GMROI across lines to see where your capital works hardest.
