Dead Stock Exposure Calculator
Three numbers most multi-branch distributors have never seen calculated simultaneously — monthly capital drag, cross-branch recovery potential, and the cost of doing nothing for 90 days.

Your three numbers
Number 1 — Current Capital Drag
$108K / month
Your dead and aging stock is costing you $108K per month in holding costs, depreciation, and opportunity cost — capital that could be redeployed into fast-moving inventory. Annualised: $1.3M/yr.
Holding cost
$58K/mo
Depreciation
$22K/mo
Opportunity
$11K/mo
Number 2 — Cross-Branch Recovery Estimate
$2.2M – $2.0M
Based on distributor benchmarks for 12-branch networks, an estimated $2.2M–$2.0M of your aging inventory is likely transfer-eligible — stock sitting idle in one branch that another branch could sell today. Not dead. Just misplaced.
Transfer-eligible (90–180d)
$2.2M–$2.0M
Liquidation value (24mo+)
$392K at 35¢
Number 3 — The 90-Day Inaction Cost
$96K
If current patterns continue unchanged for 90 days, an additional $1.3M moves from at-risk into fully dead stock based on your aging velocity — adding $96K in unrecoverable cost on top of your current drag.
