Enter what is still unsold
Each complete row represents an item or a homogeneous group bought at the same per-unit cost. Do not enter units already sold.
FREE INVENTORY AGING CALCULATOR
How much inventory cash is sitting?
Get a grounded snapshot of the original purchase cost still held in unsold stock. See the units and at-cost dollars by age—not a guess at what they might sell for.
A STOCKROOM SNAPSHOT
List what is still unsold.
A hypothetical snapshot is ready to review. Change the rows to match your stock; results use acquisition cost, never an asking price.
ITEM-BY-ITEM
The stock behind the total
Only complete, valid entries are included in a calculated snapshot.

Blank rows are ignored. A partially completed row must be corrected before any totals or exports are available.
A CLEARER STOCKROOM VIEW
Aging is a snapshot, not a forecast.
Use the original purchase cost attached to stock you still hold. The result answers how much cash remains committed—not what the stock will sell for, or when it will sell.
Separate purchase from listing
Acquisition age starts on the date you acquired the stock. Listing age is optional context measured from its own date; it never replaces acquisition age.
Read the cost, not a possible price
Units are multiplied by their entered acquisition cost per unit. There is no resale value, expected profit, demand estimate, or markdown recommendation.
A SMALL, CHECKABLE EXAMPLE
Eight units. One useful signal.
As of 2026-10-09, four hypothetical records hold 8 remaining units and $117.50 acquisition cost. 0–30 days: 2 units / $25.00; 31–60 days: 1 units / $30.00; 61–90 days: 3 units / $22.50; 91+ days: 2 units / $40.00. Exactly $40.00 and 2 units are older than 90 days. These totals reconcile; records are not unit counts.

METHOD & LIMITS
What goes into the snapshot
At-cost amount: remaining whole units × acquisition cost per unit, represented in integer USD cents. This is purchase cost still attached to unsold stock—not current market value, expected proceeds, or profit.
Calendar-day buckets: acquisition date is compared with the selected snapshot date. Ages are grouped as 0–30, 31–60, 61–90, and 91+ days. Future dates are not allowed. A known listing date must not precede acquisition and remains a distinct optional measure.
Rows and validation: up to 100 manual rows, each with a unique identifier (1–128 characters, case-insensitive). A completely blank row is ignored and counted as excluded. Any partially completed row or invalid date, quantity, or cost blocks the entire calculation and exports; no partial financial total is presented. Quantities are whole units from 0–1,000,000. Costs are USD from $0 through $1,000,000 with at most two decimal places per unit; combined cost is bounded to $1 trillion. Dates are real calendar dates from 1900 through 9999. Explicit zero quantity/cost is valid; a blank required value is not zero.
Manual entry only: this initial release has no CSV import or upload. Exports are current plain-text reviews, not spreadsheets or app-import files. Include purchase tax and acquisition transport in the per-unit cost; do not repeat the entire lot cost for every unit.

Inventory aging calculator FAQs
What does “cash sitting in inventory” mean here?
It means the acquisition cost you entered for units still unsold. It is a view of purchase cash still attached to stock, not cash currently in a bank account and not the amount those items may eventually sell for.
How are the age buckets calculated?
The acquisition date is compared with the editable as-of date in calendar days: 0–30, 31–60, 61–90, and 91 or more days. Acquisition and listing cannot be after the selected as-of date. Exactly 90 days is in 61–90, not “older than 90.” Counts always mean remaining units, not records.
Why does listing age differ from acquisition age?
You may acquire stock well before listing it. Acquisition age measures time since purchase; optional listing age measures time since listing. The calculator keeps these dates distinct and uses acquisition age for the buckets.
Does this estimate what my stock is worth?
No. It totals original acquisition cost for remaining units. It does not estimate resale value, expected profit, sell-through timing, demand, or a recommended price.
Can I enter a group of units in one row?
Yes, when the units are a homogeneous group with the same acquisition date and per-unit cost. Use separate rows when dates or unit costs differ. Enter only the quantity that remains unsold.
What happens if a row is incomplete?
A wholly blank row is ignored and identified as excluded. A row with only some required fields completed is invalid; the calculator blocks all totals and exports until it is fixed or removed.
Are my inventory entries saved or sent to my account?
No. Entries and exports are handled locally in this page. Nothing is saved, submitted, synced, or transferred, and calculator actions are not tracked. Existing consent-aware page views only.
