A Trading Firm’s Average Inventory Is Rs 20,000 (Cost). If The Inventory Turnover Ratio Is 8 Times And The Firm Sells Goods At A Profit Of 20% On Sale, Ascertain the Profit of the firm.

A trading firm’s average inventory is Rs 20,000 (cost). If the inventory turnover ratio is 8 times and the firm sells goods at a profit of 20% on sale, ascertain the profit of the firm.





Inventory Turn Over Ratio 







Or,8 






Or, Cost of Revenue from Operations 

= 20,000 ❌ 8

= 1,60,000

Let Sales Price be Rs. 100

∴ Profit is Rs.20

Hence, the Cost of Revenue from Operations 

= Rs. 100 - Rs. 20

= Rs. 80

If the Cost of Revenue from Operations  = Rs. 100 - Rs. 20 = Rs. 80


If the Cost of Revenue from Operations is Rs. 80, then Revenue from Operations = 100

If the Cost of Revenue from Operations is Rs. 1, then Revenue from Operations = ``\frac{100}{8}``

If the Cost of Revenue from Operations is Rs. 1,60,000 then,

Revenue from Operations = ``\frac{100}{8}\times1,60,000`` = 2,00,000

Now, Profit = Net Revenue from Operations - Cost of Revenue from Operations 

= 2,00,000 - 1,60,000

= 40,000



Alternative Method:

Stock Turn Over Ratio







Cost of Good Sold = 20,000  ╳ 8 = 1,60,000

If, Sales as X then,

Cost of Good Sold = Net Sales - Profit on Sales

or, 1,60,000 = X - 20% of X

or, 1,60,000 = X - `\frac{20}{100}`❌ X

or, 1,60,000 = `\frac{100x-20x}{100}`

                    = `\frac{80x}{100}`

                X = `\frac{1,60,000 ╳ 100}{80}` = 2,00,000


Now, Profit = Net Revenue from Operations - Cost of Revenue from Operations 

= 2,00,000 - 1,60,000

= 40,000
