a.26.94 days.
b.24.33 days.
c.51.27 days.
d.25.63 days.
Answer: The correct answer if D i.e. 25.63 days
Average Inventory = (Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory) /
2
Average Inventory = ($31,000 + $28,000) / 2
Average Inventory = $59,000 / 2
Average Inventory = $29,500
Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold / Average
Inventory
Inventory Turnover = $420,000 / $29,500
Inventory Turnover = 14.24
Average Inventory Turnover in Days = 365 days / Inventory
Turnover
Average Inventory Turnover in Days = 365 / 14.24
Average Inventory Turnover = 25.63 days
