GMROI is an inventory profitability evaluation ratio that analyzes a firm's ability to turn inventory into cash above the cost of the inventory. It is a measurement of the cost of purchasing, transporting, and holding inventory, plus the cost associated with fulfilling customer orders for that inventory — compared to the gross margin you receive from selling that same inventory. It is a better metric in retail compared to simple ROI and provides more accurate insights regarding inventory management.
