Answer:

D. 118.08 days

Explanation:

We know,

Days sales inventory = 365 days ÷ Inventory Turnover

To determine the days sales inventory, we have to find inventory turnover.

So, We know,

Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold ÷ Average Inventory

Given,

Cost of goods sold = $579,300

Average Inventory = (Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory) ÷ 2

Since, there is no beginning and ending inventory, the inventory remains the average inventory.

Therefore, average inventory = $187,400

Putting the values into the inventory turnover formula, we can get,

Inventory turnover = $579,300 ÷ $187,400

or, Inventory turnover = 3.09 times

Therefore,

Days sales inventory = 365 days ÷ Inventory Turnover

or, Days sales inventory = 365 days ÷ 3.09

Therefore, Days sales inventory = 118.08 days. So, D is the answer.
