Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation

The inventory turnover ratio is calculated by dividing the cost of goods sold for a period by the average inventory for that period

COGS / average stock = Rate of turnover

cogs = opening stock + purchases - closing stock
2000 + 28000 - 3000 = 27000

Average stock = opening stock + closing stock / 2
2000 + 3000 / 2 = 2500

Rate of turnover = 27000/ 2500 = 10.8 times
