| A high ratio may indicate positive factors
such as good stock demand and management. A low ratio may
indicate that either stock is naturally slow moving or
problems such as the presence of obsolete stock or good
presentation.
A low ratio can also be indicative of potential stock
valuation issues.
It is a good idea to monitor the ratio over
consecutive financial years to determine if a trend is
developing.
It can be useful to compare this financial ratio with the working capital ratio. For example business operations with low stock turnover tend to require higher working capital. |
