(b) A company had an average inventory last year of $208,000 and its inventory turnover was 6. If sales volume and unit cost remain the same this year as last and inventory turnover is 8 this year, what will average inventory have to be during the current year

Respuesta :

Answer: 156000

Explanation:

The average inventory during the current year would be calculated as follows:

Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of goods sold / average inventory

where,

Inventory turnover = 8

Cost of goods sold = $208,000 × 6 = $1,248,000

Average inventory = Unknown

Therefore, 8 = 1248000 / Average inventory

Average inventory = 1248000 / 8

Average inventory = 156,000
