Answer:

58 days

Explanation:

Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold ÷ Average inventory

= $920,000 ÷ $146,000 = 6.30 (rounded)

Average inventory = ($132,000 + $160,000) ÷ 2

=$292,000÷ 2

= $146,000

Average sale period = 365 days ÷ Inventory turnover

= 365 days ÷ 6.30 = 57.9

Approximately 58 days

Therefore the company’s average sale period for Year 2 is closest to 58 days
