Based on the activity ratios provided for Deere & Company, we can analyze the following:
1. Days of Inventory on Hand (DOH):
- The days of inventory on hand measure how many days, on average, the inventory is held before it is sold.
- Deere & Company has exhibited fluctuations in its inventory management. For instance, the days of inventory on hand ranged from a high of 189.53 days on May 1, 2022, to a low of 115.92 days on July 31, 2023.
- A decreasing trend in the days of inventory on hand generally indicates efficient inventory management, as products are moving off the shelves faster.
2. Days of Sales Outstanding (DSO):
- The days of sales outstanding ratio is not provided in the data, which indicates that we do not have information on how many days, on average, it takes for the company to collect payments from its customers.
- Inability to assess DSO limits our understanding of Deere & Company's accounts receivable management efficiency.
3. Number of Days of Payables:
- Similar to DSO, the data does not include information on the number of days of payables, preventing an analysis of how long the company takes to pay its suppliers.
- This ratio is crucial as it reflects the company's payment terms and liquidity management.
Overall, while the days of inventory on hand provide insight into Deere & Company's inventory management, the absence of DSO and payable days data limits a comprehensive assessment of the company's working capital management and efficiency in collecting receivables and managing payables.
