What is the stock to sales ration for August?
Stock to Sales Ratio = Value of Average Stock in hand of a period / Value of Sold stock in that period
For August month BOM stock is = $144,987 and EOM Stock is =$ 344,567
Average Stock= (144,987 + 344,567) /2 = 489,554/2 = 244,777
and Sales of the month is = $ 77,678
Stock to sales ratio = 244,777 / 77,678 = 3.151 or 3.151:1
Stock to sales ratio indicates how much stocking is done by the business in comparison to sales, It is continuosly reviewed by businesses to avoid overstocking.
(Instead of Average stock in cases this ratio may also be calculated by taking stock at the beginning/end but in this case as there is a good gap in BOM and EOM stock levels, so application of Average stock is more appropriate.)
