Revenue from operations = 4,00,000 Average Inventory = 55,000 Gross Profit Ratio = 10%. Calculate Inventory turnover ratio-

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Given information:

  • Revenue from Operations = ₹4,00,000
  • Average Inventory = ₹55,000
  • Gross Profit Ratio = 10%

Finding Cost of Revenue from Operations:

Gross Profit Ratio formula: Gross ProfitRevenue from Operations×100\frac{\text{Gross Profit}}{\text{Revenue from Operations}} \times 100

Gross Profit = 10100×4,00,000\frac{10}{100} \times 4,00,000 = ₹40,000

Since Gross Profit = Revenue from Operations - Cost of Revenue from Operations

Cost of Revenue from Operations = 4,00,000 - 40,000 = ₹3,60,000


Calculating Inventory Turnover Ratio:

Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of Revenue from OperationsAverage Inventory\frac{\text{Cost of Revenue from Operations}}{\text{Average Inventory}}

= 3,60,00055,000\frac{3,60,000}{55,000}

= 6.55 Times

The Inventory Turnover Ratio uses Cost of Revenue from Operations (not Revenue from Operations) because inventory is valued at cost. Since the Gross Profit Ratio tells us what percentage of sales is profit, we need to remove this profit margin to arrive at the cost figure for proper comparison with inventory.
