Is GameWorld performing better than its competitor Ultimate Value where inventory tuned over 3.6 times during 2013 (85 days to sell). #Yes No

Explanation / Answer

Inventory turnover ratio -2013

= Cost of goods sold / average inventory

Cost of goods sold = 6840

Average inventory = 1950 + 2350 / 2 = 2150

Inventory Turnover Ratio = 6840 / 2150 = 3.18

Days sales in inventory = Ending inventory / cost of goods sold x 365

= 2350 / 6840 x 365 = 126 days

Inventory Turnover Ratio - 2012

Cost of goods sold = 6440

Average inventory = 1250 + 1950 / 2 = 2225

Inventory Turnover Ratio = 6440 / 2225 = 2.89

Days sale in inventory = 1950 / 6440 x 365 = 111 Days

2.Ultimately gameorld performing better than competitor, hen ITR = 3.6 and the time period is 65 days

= 1950 + 6440/ 65 Dayas = 20 days
