Answer:

The percentage of assets committed to inventory is 26.9%.

Inventory turnover is 4.8 times.

Explanation:

Inventory as a percentage of assets = total inventory / total assets × 100

                                                            = (1.10 + 2.20 + 0.82) / 15.3 × 100

                                                            = 26.9% (rounded)

Inventory turnover = cost of sales / inventory

                               = 19.8 / (1.10 + 2.20 + 0.82)

                               = 4.8 times (rounded)
