Hello Team,

When it comes to classifying your inventory it is usually safe to follow the Pareto Principle, also known as the 80/20 rule. The Pareto Principle is the theory that most businesses see 80% of their sales come from roughly 20% of customers, which should fall into your A classification category.

Since it is material classification, ABC analysis principle which is similar to Pareto principle should be applied, i.e., 

‘A’ items – 20% of the items accounts for 70% of the annual consumption value of the items.

‘B’ items - 30% of the items accounts for 25% of the annual consumption value of the items.

‘C’ items - 50% of the items accounts for 5% of the annual consumption value of the items.

 

Hence c.% of items constitute% of Value and% of items constitute% of value is the right answer

The rule works on the basis of 80% to 20% for example. 80 % OF YOUR. Business comes from 20% of your customer base

20% of items constitute 80% of Value and 80% of items constitute 20% of value.
