Answer 2

Answer: D-its inventory level is too high

Explanation:

Inventory turnover is a ratio that shows a company how efficient it sells its products. A high turnover means that the company is generating sales efficiently for inventory, while a low turnover means not generating efficient sales for inventory.

Also a low quick Ratio means when a company does not have enough current assets and lacks inventory in order to cover it's short term debt

Since, Okra Corp. has a low inventory turnover, a high current ratio, and an average quick ratio, it will generate inventory that is too high leading to poor sales.
