    Year 2014 Year 2013

    a) Inventory Turnover ratio 3.4 times and 3.1 times

    b) Number of days' sales in inventory 107.3 days and 117.7 days

    Explanation:

    As per the data given in the question,

    For Year 2014:

    Average inventory = ($359,160 + $516,840) : 2

    = $438,000

    Inventory Turnover ratio = $1,489,200:$438,000

    = 3.4 times

    For Year 2013:

    Average inventory = ($251,120 + $359,160) : 2

    = $305,140

    Inventory Turnover ratio = $945,934:$305,140

    = 3.1 times

    Number of days' sales in inventory = Number of days in a year : Inventory Turnover ratio

    For 2014 = 365:3.4 = 107.3 days

    For 2013 = 365:3.1 = 117.7 days
