11 October 2011 Inventory turnover ratio is the ratio of turnover of goods manufactured to average inventory maintained.

A high inventory turnover ratio is good (ratio = turnover of stock/avg. inventory)

A high turnover indicates that the company has to maintain a lower inventory for its operations (which is good as it indicates investment in stock/current asset is less, sales is healthy, the company performance is good etc)
