The correct answer is A. Accounts payable turnover.

Explanation:

Accounts payable directly refer to the obligations contracted by the company in the past, which is not directly related to the inventory in the referenced terms. On the other hand, the other three ratios do analyze the behavior of the acquired goods and their management within the organization.
