Average delay?
If the company has orders for 390,000 units, but could only make 360,000 units in a year. The backlog will be 30,000 units (390,000 - 360,000).<BR><BR>To work out the average delay you need to do: backlog volume divide it by sales volume and multiply by 12 (if your calculating the delay in months)<BR><BR>So 30,000 / 360,000 x 12 = Avg Delay in completing an order is 1 month.<BR><BR>Hope this helps!0
