| teddajr | Why not B - under LIFO? If the prices increase COGS will increase. Hence, inventory turnover will also increase. |
| achu | High turnover is not necessarily concurrent with an increase in prices. Consider a monopolitic competetion scenario where a company goes for high volume and low margins. They might decrease prices to get/sustain high turnover. While you might find a scenerio where your thoughts work, I believe A is the best choice by a good margin. |
| khalifa92 | the higher the turn over the faster inventory, receivables turn to cash and payables turn to be paid. |
