Answer:

Perez Corporation

a. Inventory turnover = Sales/Inventory

20X1 =  10x

20X2 = 10x

b. Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold/Inventory

20X1 =  7.5x

20X2 = 9x

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                    20X1              20X2

Sales                      $8,000,000  $10,000,000

Cost of goods sold 6,000,000      9,000,000

Inventory                    800,000       1,000,000

Average inventory = $900,000 ($1,800,000/2)

a. Inventory turnover = Sales/Inventory

20X1 =  10x ($8,000,000/$800,000)

20X2 = 10x ($10,000,000/$1,000,000)

b. Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold/Inventory

20X1 =  7.5x ($6,000,000/$800,000)

20X2 = 9x ($9,000,000/$1,000,000)
