Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold ÷ Average inventory*
= $850,000 ÷ $140,000 = 6.07 (rounded)
*Average inventory =
($150,000 + $130,000)÷ 2 = $140,000
Average sale period = 365 days ÷ Inventory turnover
= 365 days ÷ 6.07 = 60.1 days (rounded)
Accounts receivable turnover = Sales on account ÷ Average accounts receivable*
= $1,370,000 ÷ $132,000 = 10.38 (rounded)
*Average accounts receivable =
($134,000 + $130,000)÷ 2 = $132,000
Average collection period = 365 days ÷ Accounts receivable turnover
= 365 days ÷ 10.38 = 35.2 days (rounded)
Operating cycle = Average sale period + Average collection period
= 60.1 days + 35.2 days = 95.3 days
