Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Number of days' sales in inventory is the average number of days that a company will take to sell of its inventory within the year. It tells us the number of days funds are tied up in inventory.

The formula is (average inventory/cost of sales) x 365days.

Average inventory =

($200,000 + $140,000) ÷ 2

$170,000

Therefore, Number of days' sales in inventory is

($170,000/$552,500) x 365days

=112.3 days
