Respuesta :

Answer:

16.42

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cost of goods sold =  $548,600

Beginning inventory of the year = $31,283

Ending inventory of the year = $35,538

Now,

the Inventory turnover ratio is calculated as;

⇒ ( Cost of goods sold ) ÷ ( Average inventory of the year )

Also,

Average inventory of the year = [tex]\frac{\textup{Beginning inventory + Ending inventory}}{\textup{2}}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{\$31,283+\$35,538}{\textup{2}}[/tex]

= $33,410.5

Therefore,

Inventory turnover ratio = $548,600 ÷  $33,410.5

= 16.42
