In-depth Use Case / Real-world Example

A company manufacturing clothing calculates Inventory Days of Supply (DOS) by dividing the current inventory by the daily usage rate. For example, if the company has 10,000 units in stock and uses 500 units per day, the DOS is 20 days. This helps maintain optimal inventory levels, avoiding overstocking or stockouts.
