    Inventory turnover ratio (Company 1) = 4.5 times

    Inventory turnover ratio (Company 2) = 11 times

    Explanation:

    Given:

    Particular Company 1 Company 2

    Net sales $400,000 $ 400,000

    Cost of goods sold $180,000 $330,000

    Gross profit $220,000 $ 70,000

    Average inventory $40,000 $30,000

    Computation of inventory turnover ratio.

    Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of goods sold / Average inventory

    Company 1

    Inventory turnover ratio = $180,000 / 40,000

    Inventory turnover ratio = 4.5 times

    Company 2

    Inventory turnover ratio = $330,000 / 30,000

    Inventory turnover ratio = 11 times
