Question 2

Beverly Corp had total sales of 1,200,000 in 2010 (80 percent of its sales are credit). The company's gross profit
  margin is 25 percent, its ending inventory is 150,000, and its accounts receivable balance is 90,000.
 
  What

  and reduced its average collection period to 28.21875 days?

Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Currently, cost of goods sold is 900,000 and inventory turnover is 6. To increase inventory turnover to 9, the inventory
balance would need to decrease to 100,000, or a decrease of 50,000, resulting in additional cash of 50,000.
