    How it works

    How the Etsy Inventory Value Calculator works

    This calculator is transparent by design. Review the steps and formulas so you can trust the estimate and adjust assumptions when your dashboard differs.

    Calculation steps

    1. 1Total cost = numberOfProducts × averageCostPerItem.
    2. 2Potential revenue = numberOfProducts × averageSellingPrice.
    3. 3Gross profit potential = potentialRevenue − totalCost.
    4. 4Etsy fees total = potentialRevenue × etsyFeePercent.
    5. 5Packaging total = numberOfProducts × packagingCostPerItem.
    6. 6Net profit potential = grossProfit − feesTotal − packagingTotal + shippingProfitTotal.
    7. 7Monthly units = numberOfProducts × sellThroughRate.
    8. 8Months to sell through = 1 ÷ sellThroughRate when rate >0, in months.
    9. 9Inventory turnover per year = sellThroughRate × 12.
    10. 10Monthly net subtracts monthly storage from monthly net before storage.

    Formulas

    • InventoryCost = units × costPerItem
    • PotentialRevenue = units × sellingPrice
    • GrossProfit = potentialRevenue − inventoryCost
    • NetPotential = grossProfit − fees − packaging + shippingProfit + (units × shippingProfit)
    • MonthlyUnits = units × sellThrough%
    • MonthsToSell = 1 ÷ sellThrough%
    • TurnoverYear = sellThrough% × 12

    Important assumptions

    • Total inventory cost is units × average cost per item.
    • Total potential revenue is units × average selling price.
    • Etsy fees apply to gross revenue at the entered percent plus shipping profit influences net.
    • Monthly sell-through units is total units × sell-through rate.
    • Storage cost accrues monthly and total over sell-through period is monthly storage × months to sell.
    • Share storage and packaging as per-unit to keep math comparable across batches.
