Answer: Inventory turnover ratio =10.52

Days sale inventory =34.70 days

Explanation:

Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of goods sold / Average inventory for same period

First Calculating Average inventory, we have that

Beginning inventory+ Ending inventory / 2

= ($92000 + $78000)/2 = $170,000 /2 = $85,000

Therefore, Inventory turnover ratio = $894, 000 / $85,000 = 10.5178 rounded to 10.52

2) Days' sale inventory = 365 / Inventory turnover ratio

= 365 / 10.52 = 34.70 days

Answer:

1. 10.52 times

2. 34.70 days

Explanation:

(1) the inventory turnover ratio

the inventory turnover ratio = Cost of goods sold ÷ Average Inventory

= $894,000 ÷ ( $92,000 + $ 78,000)/2

= 10.52 times

(2) the number of days' sales in inventory

number of days' sales in inventory = Average Inventory ÷ (Cost of goods sold/365)

= $85,000 ÷ ($894,000 /365)

= 34.70 days
