The activity ratios for Oshkosh Corporation provide insights into the efficiency of the company's operations in managing various aspects of its business.
1. Inventory Turnover: Oshkosh Corporation consistently maintained a moderate level of inventory turnover, with ratios ranging from 3.69 to 3.87 over the years. This indicates that the company is able to sell and replace its inventory approximately 3.7 times a year, which is generally considered healthy for a manufacturing or distribution business.
2. Receivables Turnover: There is no data available for receivables turnover, which makes it difficult to analyze how efficiently Oshkosh is collecting payment from its customers. A higher receivables turnover ratio would indicate a quicker collection cycle, improving the company's liquidity position.
3. Payables Turnover: Similarly, there is no information provided for payables turnover, which could have shown how effectively Oshkosh is managing its trade payables. A higher payables turnover ratio would imply that the company is efficiently utilizing credit terms.
