The correct answer is: Inventory Turnover rate

The term for the number of times per year that inventory is purchased, consumed, and replaced is known as the Inventory Turnover rate. This metric is crucial for assessing how efficiently a business manages its inventory by measuring how quickly products are sold and restocked within a specific time frame. Options B, C, and D do not accurately describe this specific concept of inventory management, making them incorrect choices.
