If you just want the average inventory the purchases,cost of goods sold and other related figures are irrelevant to the calculation in question.The average inventory is usually calculated as a simple mean average of opening and closing inventory.Of course, the "normal" level of inventory held may be much higher or lower than this calculation indicates.
