Explanation:
The computation of the accounts payable turnover ratio is shown below:
Accounts payable turnover ratio = Total Purchases ÷ Average Accounts payable
As we know that
Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + total purchases - Ending inventory
i.e
Total Purchases = Cost of goods sold + Ending Inventory – Beginning Inventory
= $550,000 + $101,000 - $120,000
= $531,000
So, the account payable turnover ratio is
= $531,000 ÷ $105,000
= 5.06 times
Now in days it is
= 365 days ÷ 5.06 times
= 72 days
