The Inventory & Cost Basis Tracker

You are not broke. Your money is sitting on a shelf. Every unsold unit is cash you already spent — and most inventory trackers count units, not the money frozen in them.

What’s inside

  • One workbook, five tabs: Start Here, Dashboard, Inventory, Purchases, and Sold.
  • Money tied up, not units — every item shows its cost per unit and the total cash sitting in it, most expensive first.
  • Dead stock that surfaces itself against two cut-offs you set: how many days is too long, and how little selling counts as stopped.
  • Cost basis kept accurate as you buy more at different prices, and sell-through rate — the most honest number about your buying.
  • Age of stock counted per unit still held, so old stock cannot hide inside an average.

Who this is for

An item name that does not match, or a sale logged before any purchase of that item, reads check-item instead of quietly producing wrong numbers — and the dashboard counts how many rows need a look.
