Answer:

Days' sales in inventory = 24 days.

Explanation:

We know,

Days' sales in inventory = 365 ÷ Inventory Turnover

Given,

Inventory Turnover = Cost of goods sold (cost of merchandise sold) ÷ Average inventory

Inventory Turnover = $2,100,000 ÷ $140,000

Inventory Turnover = 15 times

Therefore,

Days' sales in inventory = 365 ÷ 15 times

Hence, Days' sales in inventory = 24.33 days

Days' sales in inventory = 24 days.

Days' sales in inventory indicates that within 24 days, the company can sell the inventory.
