Itâs important to note that married filing separately is not the same as filing as a single person. In most cases, it doesnât make sense to file separately because a married couple will usually end up paying more total tax with two returns.
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.
Often the costs are computed for a year and then expressed as a percentage of the cost of the inventory items. For example, a company might express the holding costs as 20%. If the company has $300,000 of inventory cost, its cost of carrying or holding the inventory is estimated to be $60,000 per year. The cost of carrying inventory will vary from company to company.
