I want to know the relationship between inventory turnover ratio and allowance for obsolescence in inventory.

Basically, I am analyzing a company's financial statement, and this company is in bad position, high leverage (borrowed 1B last year), one of the sector filled chapter 11, and there are many other bad signs. Therefore, I thought the inventory turnover ratio in 2016 would be better than 2017's, however, it came out to be 2017's inventory turnover ratio was little bit higher than 2016's.

In this company's 10-k report, it says that "allowance for obsolescence in inventory from 2016 to 2017, which was 221.70%." is this the reason for higher inventory turnover ratio in 2016 than 2017? Or is it just irrelevant to the inventory turnover ratio? Can someone explain this?
