the example provided for determining the carrying costs for 2 years seem to be over stated. In the example the additonal carrying cost of the items that have not moved in two years seems to include the Item cost for each year twice. It shows $ 4,449 that has accumulated after two years. This is should show $ 2,528. Only the Carrying cost should be added for each year to come to the additional carrying cost. The author seems to have included the cost of the items in each year. This will affect the breakeven days.

This book lives up to its title. It is an easy to read introduction to inventory management. If you are new to the concept or are an empiric manager in the process of formalizing your education, this is a good start. Don't look for in depth information or case studies.
On the recommendations side, the author left the topic of safety and occupational health out of the book. It would be good to include this topic in the following edition.
