soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Inventory turnover= 5.5 times

Explanation:

Current ratio is given as 3

Cost of goods sold = $5,000

Current assets = $1,800

Quick ratio= 1.5

Current ratio= current assets/ current liabilities

3= 1,800/ current liabilities

Current liabilities= 1,800/3

Current liabilities= $600

Quick ratio= Cash and Receivables/ Current liabilities

1.5= Cash and Receivables/600

Cash and Receivables= 600* 1.5= $900

Current asset= Cash and Receivables + Inventory

1,800= 900+ Inventory

Inventory= 1,800-900

Inventory= $900

Inventory turnover= Cost of goods sold/ Inventory

Inventory turnover= 5,000/900

Inventory turnover= 5.5 times
