a.)$2,650,000.b.)Days' sales in average receivables = 51.4 days;Days' sales in average inventories = 120 days.
Feedback:a.)Gross margin equals net sales minus cost of goods sold.Net sales can be found by using the accounts receivable turnover ratio:
Accounts receivable turnover = Net sales ÷ Average receivables
7.0 = Net sales ÷ (($800,000 + $900,000)÷ 2).Net sales = $5,950,000.
Cost of goods sold can be found by using the inventory turnover ratio:
Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold ÷ Average inventory
3.0 = Cost of goods sold ÷ (($1,000,000 + $1,200,000)÷ 2).Cost of goods sold = $3,300,000.Gross margin = $5,950,000 - $3,300,000 = $2,650,000.b.)Days' sales in average receivables = 360 ÷ 7.0 = 51.4 days;Days' sales in average inventories = 360 ÷ 3.0 = 120 days.
