A. A decline in a firm's inventory turnover ratio suggests that it is improving both its inventory management and its liquidity position, i.e., that it is becoming more liquid. B.

C. If a firm's fixed assets turnover ratio is significantly lower than the average for its industry, then it could be that the firm uses its fixed assets very efficiently or is operating at over capacity and should probably add fixed assets. D. The more conservative a firm's management is, the higher the firm's total debt to total capital ratio is likely to be. E.
