Cassidy Rodriguez · Answer 1

asset turnover ratio is the ratio of the value of a company's sales or revenues generated relative to the value of its assets. The Asset Turnover ratio can often be used as an indicator of the efficiency with which a company is deploying its assets in generating revenue. Given that the sales is 60k and the value of the asset is 370k, the ratio is simply the sales / value of assets which is 60 / (370-88).
