    can we use inventory holding period ( (inventory/cost of sales) *100) in ratio analysis rather than inventory turnover ratio(cost of sales/inventory) ?

    Of course you can – if you can use that result in a meaningful interpretative way

    The same goes for any ratio – if you can use that result in a meaningful way, it’s perfectly acceptable

    If you were to divide the carrying value of patents and intangibles by the figure for debenture interest expense what would you get? I have no idea … but if you believe that you can get something sensible from it, then it’s a valid ratio to use

    OK?
