- Cost of Goods Sold = 12% of Revenue
- In 2017,
Revenue = $2500,000
Cost of Goods Sold = $2500,000*12%
=$300,000
Inventory = $70,000
Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of Goods Sold/Inventory
=$300,000/$70,000
= 4.29 times
- In 2018,
Revenue = $3000,000
Cost of Goods Sold = $3000,000*12%
=$360,000
Inventory = $85,000
Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of Goods Sold/Inventory
=$360,000/$85,000
= 4.24 times
Inventory Turnover Ratio in 2017 is 4.29 times while Inventory Turnover Ratio in 2018 is 4.24 times.
As, the higher the Inventory Turnover ratio the better it is as firm is able to sell goods quickly.
Thus, decrease in Inventory Turnover ratio indiactes it become worse
