INVENTORY TURNS

The rate at which inventory is “sold out” and restocked, that is, turned over. Faster inventory turns indicate an organization is holding less excess inventory. Inventory Turns are usually calculated by dividing the cost of goods sold for a time period by the average inventory cost for the period.
