Right Answer:
The different types of inventory analysis include:
1. **ABC Analysis**: This method categorizes inventory into three classes (A, B, and C) based on their importance.
- A items are high-value but low-quantity (typically 70-80% of value).
- B items are moderate in both value and quantity.
- C items are low-value but high-quantity (typically 10-20% of value).
The analysis is done by calculating the annual consumption value of each item and ranking them accordingly.
2. **XYZ Analysis**: This method classifies inventory based on demand variability.
- X items have stable demand.
- Y items have moderate variability in demand.
- Z items have highly variable or unpredictable demand.
The analysis is performed by assessing the demand pattern of each item over a specific period.
3. **FSN Analysis**: This categorizes inventory based on the movement of items.
- F (Fast-moving)
