Answer:
The number of days in inventory for 2018 is 64.1 days
Explanation:
The formula for computing the number of days in inventory is shown below:
= (Average inventory ÷ Cost of good sold ) × 365 days
where,
Average inventory = (Opening inventory + ending inventory) ÷ 2
= ($58,000 + $44,000) ÷ 2
= $51000
Now put the values on the formula which is shown above.
= ($51000 ÷ $290,000) × 365 days
= 64.1 days
Thus, the number of days in inventory for 2018 is 64.1 days
