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

DSRI	=	(Receivables_t / Revenue_t)	/	(Receivables_t-1 / Revenue_t-1)
	=	(1024.716 / 3772.639)	/	(1145.329 / 3908.513)

DEPI	=	(Depreciation_t-1 / (Depreciaton_t-1 + PPE_t-1))	/	(Depreciation_t / (Depreciaton_t + PPE_t))
	=	(139.897 / (139.897 + 1090.033))	/	(136.019 / (136.019 + 1026.897))
	=	0.113744	/	0.116964
