Which of the following statements is CORRECT?
A) A decline in a firm's inventory turnover ratio suggests that it is improving both its inventory management and its liquidity position, i.e., that it is becoming more liquid.
B) In general, it's better to have a low inventory turnover ratio than a high one, as a low one indicates that the firm has an adequate stock of inventory relative to sales and thus will not lose sales as a result of running out of stock.
C) If a firm's fixed assets turnover ratio is significantly lower than its industry average, this could indicate that it uses its fixed assets very efficiently or is operating at over capacity and should probably add fixed assets.
D) The more conservative a firm's management is, the higher its total debt to total capital ratio is likely to be.
E) The days sales outstanding ratio tells us how long it takes, on average, to collect after a sale is made. The DSO can be compared with the firm's credit terms to get an idea of whether customers are paying on time.

Explanation:

Turnover is really the net profits of a corporation, while income is a company's remaining earnings after all costs are paid on net sales. Therefore, sales and profits are basically the starting and end goals of the statement of revenues-the top revenues and the final results.

While the turnover proportion in fixed assets is considerably lower than the average for the industry, this might indicate a highly efficient use of its fixed assets or-capacity and should likely add fixed assets.

The excellent turnover ratio for the days shows us how long collection is taken after a purchase is made on average. To order to get the understanding that consumers pay on time, the DSO could be compared to the business credit conditions.
