A large increase in DSR could be indicative of revenue inflation.

DSRI=(Receivables_t / Revenue_t) / (Receivables_t-1 / Revenue_t-1)
=(207.451 / 1144.999) / (184.763 / 1119.84)

SGI=Sales_t / Sales_t-1
=Revenue_t / Revenue_t-1
=1144.999 / 1119.84
=1.0225

5. DEPI = Depreciation Index

Measured as the ratio of the rate of Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization in year t-1 to the corresponding rate in year t.

DEPI greater than 1 indicates that assets are being depreciated at a slower rate. This suggests that the firm might be revising useful asset life assumptions upwards, or adopting a new method that is income friendly.

DEPI=(Depreciation_t-1 / (Depreciaton_t-1 + PPE_t-1)) / (Depreciation_t / (Depreciaton_t + PPE_t))
=(104.577 / (104.577 + 307.788)) / (110.237 / (110.237 + 335.067))
=0.253603 / 0.247554

=(381.05 / 1144.999) / (344.518 / 1119.84)
=0.332795 / 0.307649
