Inventory costs are the costs related to storing and maintaining its inventory over a certain period of time. Typically, inventory costs are described as a percentage of the inventory value (annual average inventory, i.e. for a retailer the average of the goods bought to its suppliers during a year) on an annualized basis. They vary strongly depending on the business field, but they are always quite high.
Average cost is a costing valuation method that, as new stock is received, the total value of the received inventory items is added to the value of the existing inventory items, with the resulting value divided by the resulting quantity on hand to form a true weighted average cost.
