    51.2 days in inventory ratio decrease as a result of the switch to the JIT system

    Explanation:

    Just in time (JIT) output is a process technique designed to reduce the processing cycles of production systems, as well as the reaction times of manufacturers and consumers. JIT production allows companies, while lowering costs, to manage variation in their operations.

    Inventory turnover shall be calculated by the split price of products sold by average stock before days in inventory can also be determined.

    Inventory turnover = 3.9 times ($624,000/160,000) in 2016 and

    8.6 times ($688,000/80,000) in 2017.

    Dividing 365 by stock days in every statistic results of 93.6 and 42.4 days, respectively, a decrease of 51.2 days.
