Inertia is a concept more than a measurable quantity. We know that an object has inertia, but there is not real unit to descibe it. 
Basically, MASS is the best way to measure inertia, in fact that is the correct way. suppose i have a mass of 50 kg, i have a related interta. 
If i lower my mass to 45 the inertai accssiated will change as well.
