Jones over forecasts his inventory and has a low inventory turnover ratio. This drastically increases his accounts payable, as he isn’t able to pay due to low cash inflow. His account’s payable increased by nearly 9 percent in 2006. Nearly half of his current assets are in inventory.

In terms of the current recession many investors may be worried to what effect the current recession will have on Tesco and M&S respectively.
