Inventory turnover

= Cost of goods sold/Average merchandise inventory

= $1,200,000 / [($150,000 + $180,000)/2 ] = 7.27 times

Days sales in inventory = Ending Inventory/Costs of goods sold x 365

= ($180,000 / $1,200,000) x 365 = 54.75 days

Quick Study 5-23 (10 minutes)

a. Both IFRS and U.S. GAAP provide broad and similar guidance on the
accounting for items and costs making up merchandise inventory.
Specifically, merchandise inventory includes all items that a company
owns and holds for sale. Further, merchandise inventory includes
costs of expenditures necessary, directly or indirectly, to bring those
items to a salable condition and location.
b. Yes, companies reporting under IFRS can apply cost flow assumptions
in assigning costs to inventory. FIFO and weighted average are two
popular cost flow assumptions applied by companies reporting under
IFRS. (LIFO is not presently acceptable under IFRS.)
c.

U.S. GAAP prohibits any later increase in the recorded value of

inventory that had been written down even if that decline in value is
reversed through value increases in later periods. However, IFRS
allows reversals of those write-downs up to the original acquisition
cost.
