Final Answer :
A.Inventory turnover ratio = $175,000 ÷ $20,000 = 8.75 times.
B.Average days to sell inventory = 365 ÷ 8.75 = 41.71 days.
C.Receivable turnover ratio = $150,000 ÷ $20,000 = 7.5 times.(Credit sales = $225,000 - $75,000 = $150,000. )
D.Average days to collect receivables = 365 ÷ 7.5 = 48.67 days.
