Option #1: Analyzing Inventory Turnover

Research the term “inventory turnover” and write a paper discussing the normal inventory turnover for the following industries:

1. Automobile manufacturers
2. Restaurants and hotels
3. Retailers

In your report, discuss the following:

• What is the purpose of holding inventory?
• Which steps do you think companies can take to improve the accuracy of their inventory management program?

Your well-written paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be 2-3 pages in length, not including the cover and reference pages.
• Be formatted according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA.
• Cite a minimum of 3-5 sources to support your responses, two of which are academic, peer-reviewed sources. These sources  should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course, and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. The CSU-Global library is a great place to find these resources. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and the current CSU-Global APA writing standards.
