Answer:
= 44 days
Explanation:
Days’ of inventory on hand measures the number of days a business takes to sell its average balance of inventory.
Days of inventory = average inventory/cost of goods sold x 365 days.
For this company:
opening stock: $ 72, 500
closing stock: $ 65, 500
cost of goods sold: $ 572 700
Average inventory =72500+65500/2
= $ 69,000.00
Days of inventory =69,000/572 700x365
= 43.975
= 44 days
