Over the past year, how often did Walker Telecommunications sell and replace its inventory?

a) 9.28x b) 8.01x c) 8.44x d) 2.86x

Answer 1

Answer:

c) 8.44x

Explanation:

Total current assets = cash + account receivable + inventory

⇔ $79,000 = $35,550 + $19,750 + Inventory

⇒ Inventory = $79,000 - $35,550 - $19,750 = $23,700

The inventory circles based on annual sales = Sales/ inventory = $200,000/ $23,700 = 8.44
