Answer 1

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Net sales revenue $ 76,131

Cost of sales 59,344

Beginning inventory 1,760

Ending inventory 1,860

First, we need to calculate the average inventory:

Average inventory= (beginning inventory + ending inventory)/2

Average inventory= (1,760 + 1,860)/2

Average inventory= 1,810

Now, the inventory turnover ratio:

inventory turnover ratio= cost of goods sold/ average inventory

inventory turnover ratio= 59,344/1,810

inventory turnover ratio= 32.79

Finally, the average days to sell inventory:

average days to sell inventory= 365/inventory turnover

average days to sell inventory= 365/32.79

average days to sell inventory= 332.21 days
