How the estimate is calculated
Multiply the number of items by labels per item, add spare labels, then subtract usable stock to find the shortage or remainder. For 32 items with two labels each and eight spares, prepare 72 labels. If 50 usable labels are in stock, make 22 more.
Keep the spare count separate from labels mounted on the display. Counts refer to finished usable labels, not uncut sheets. Include damaged or reserved stock only after subtracting it yourself.
