In 2021:

Inventory Turnover for 2021: 2.7 times

Days in inventory: 135.19 days

In 2022:

Inventory Turnover for 2022: 2.5 times

Days in inventory: 146 days

Gross Profit Rate: 25%

Explanation:

Inventory turnover ratio is calculated by using following formula:

Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of Goods Sold/Average Inventory

Average Inventory =  (Inventory beginning of year + Inventory end of year )/2

In the company:

Average Inventory for 2021 = ($590,000 + $320,000)/2 = $455,000

Average Inventory for 2022 = ($580,000 + $590,000)/2 = $585,000

In 2021:

Inventory Turnover for 2021 = $1,228,500/$455,000 = 2.7 times

Days in inventory = 365/Inventory Turnover = 365/2.7 = 135.19 days

Gross Profit Rate = Gross profit/net sales = (Net Sales - Cost of goods sold)/Net Sales = ($1,750,000 - $1,228,500)/$1,750,000 = 0.298 = 29.8%

In 2022:

Inventory Turnover for 2022 = $1,462,500/$585,000 = 2.5 times

Days in inventory = 365/Inventory Turnover = 365/2.5 = 146 days

Gross Profit Rate = Gross profit/net sales = (Net Sales - Cost of goods sold)/Net Sales = ($1,950,000 - $1,462,500)/$1,950,000 = 0.25 = 25%
