Summary Introduction

Case summary:

To make sales, goods are needed by the retailers. The biggest asset of the retailer is the inventory. As there is not enough stock of goods that may result in low sales and carrying large inventory, which increases the costs and decreases the margin. These two situations reduce the profit.

To determine: The stock turn rate of a retailer.
