SCC Co. reported the following for the current year: Net sales $ 59,000

Compute (a) inventory turnover and (b) days’ sales in inventory.
Hint: Recall that inventory turnover uses average inventory, and days’ sales in inventory uses the ending balance in inventory."

a. The inventory turnover is 8.00 times

b. The days’ sales in inventory is 68 days

Explanation:

a. In order to calculate the inventory turnover we would have to use the following formula:

inventory turnover=cost of goods sold/average inventory

inventory turnover=$ 48,800/($3,100+$ 9,100)/2

inventory turnover=8.00 times

b.  In order to calculate thedays’ sales in inventory we would have to use the following formula:

days’ sales in inventory=(Ending invenory/cost of goods sold)*365

days’ sales in inventory=($9,100/$48,800)*365

days’ sales in inventory=68 days
