Answer:

The inventory TO is 3.6875

Explanation:

[tex]\frac{Sales}{Average Inventory} = $Inventory Turnover[/tex]

​where:

[tex]$Average Inventory=(Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory)/2[/tex]

Considering there is not sufficient information to calculate the begining inventory we are going to work only with the ending inventory so:

[tex]\frac{59,000,000}{16,000,000} = 3.6875[/tex]

The inventory TO is 3.6875 This means the company sales their inventory almost 4 times per year.
