    C 621,715 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 731,430 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Inventory Turnover = CoGS/Average inventory Or Average Inventory = COGS/inventory Turnover COGS = Sales – gross profit             = 12,80,000 – 15% of 12,80,000             = 1,088,000 So Average inventory = 1088000/4 = 272,000
