Evaluating Merchandise Management Performance - GMROI
• Merchandise managers have control over
– The merchandise they buy
– The price at which the merchandise is sold
– The cost of the merchandise
• Merchandise managers do not have control over
– Operating expenses
– Human resources
– Real estate
– Supply chain management
– Information systems
• SO HOW ARE MERCHANTS EVALUATED?

Evaluating Merchandise Plan Using GMROI Measure
At the corporate level return on assets is used to evaluate performance of overall retail operations, using the formula:
Return on Assets= Net Profit X Net Sales Net Sales Total Assets = Net Profit Total Assets
![Page 4: TYBMS Retail 2](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061418/553f361c4a7959f8128b46dd/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
For the Merchandise managers they can evaluate the performance only on the basis of Merchandise. Because they have control only over the merchandise they buy and manage and buyers have control only over gross margin.
For getting to know the financial ratio which will be useful for planning and measuring merchandising performance, the return on investment resource or Gross Margin Return On Inventory Investment or GMROI is considered.
![Page 5: TYBMS Retail 2](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061418/553f361c4a7959f8128b46dd/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
GMROI measures how much gross margin rupees are earned on every rupee or inventory investment.
GMROI uses gross margin percentage and sales –to- stock ratio(similar to inventory turnover)
GMROI=Gross Margin percentage X Sales –to-stock ratio
=Gross Margin X Net Sales Net Sales Average Inventory=Gross Margin Average Inventory
![Page 6: TYBMS Retail 2](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061418/553f361c4a7959f8128b46dd/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The average inventory in GMROI is taken as a cost because a retailers investment in inventory will be the cost of the inventory and not its retail value.GMROI combines the effects of both profits and turnover enabling the retailer to measure compare and evaluate department merchandise classifications vendor lines and items.
Inventory turnover is used to evaluate how effectively managers utilize their investment in inventory.
