    The days' sales in inventory for 2019 is 85.88 days

    Explanation:

    For computing the days' sales in inventory first we have to compute the inventory turnover ratio.

    Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of goods sold : average inventory

    where,

    Average inventory = (Opening balance of inventory + ending balance of inventory) : 2

    = ($25,000 + $ 55,000) : 2

    = $40,000

    And, the cost of good sold is $170,000

    Now put these values to the above formula

    So, the answer would be equal to

    = $170,000 : $40,000

    = 4.25 times

    Now days sales inventory = Total number of days in a year : inventory turnover ratio

    = 365 days : 4.25 times

    = 85.88 days
