Nordstrom, Inc. operates department stores in numerous states. Suppose selected financial statement data (in millions) for 2020 are presented below. End of Year Beginning of Year Cash and cash equivalents $ 1,441 $ 137 Accounts receivable (net) 3,900 3,700 Inventory 1,700 1,700 Other current assets 619 576 Total current assets $7,660 $6,113 Total current liabilities $3,830 $3,042 For the year, net credit sales were $15,580 million, cost of goods sold was $10,200 million, and net cash provided by operating activities was $1,273 million. Compute the current ratio, accounts receivable turnover, average collection period, inventory turnover, and days in inventory at the end of the current year. (Round answers to 1 decimal place, e. g. 1.6.) Current ratio :1 Accounts receivable turnover times Average collection period days Inventory turnover times Days in inventory days

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. Current ratio

Current ratio = Total Current assets ÷ total current liabilities  

= $7,660 ÷ $3,830

= 2 times

2. Account receivable turnover

= Net credit sales ÷ Average accounts receivable  

where,  

Net credit sales is $15,580 million

And, the Average accounts receivable would be  

= (Accounts receivable, beginning of year + Accounts receivable, end of year) ÷ 2  

= ($3,700 + $3,900) ÷ 2  

= $3,800

So, the accounts receivable turnover ratio would be  

= $15,580 ÷ $3,800

= 4.1 times

3. Average collection period is

= 365 days ÷ account receivable turnover

= 365 days ÷ 4.1 times

= 89.02 days

4. Inventory turnover ratio

= Cost of goods sold ÷ Average inventory

where,  

Cost of goods sold is $10,200 million

And, the Average inventory would be  

= (Inventory, beginning of year + Inventory, end of year) ÷ 2  

= ($1,700 + $1,700) ÷ 2  

= $1,700

So, the inventory turnover ratio would be  

= $10,200 ÷ $1,700

= 6 times

5. days in inventory  is

= 365 days ÷ inventory turnover

= 365 days ÷ 6 times

= 60.83 days

We considered 365 days in a year

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.
