Answer:

Inventory turnover = 9.45

Explanation:

Inventory turnover is defined as the ratio between Cost of good sold and average inventory.

Average inventory is defined as follows, where BI = Beginning merchandise inventory and EI = Ending merchandise inventory:

[tex] Average Inventory = \frac{BI + EI}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Average Inventory=\frac{20000+35000}{2}=27500[/tex]

then:

[tex]Turnover = \frac{260000}{27500} \\Turnover = 9.45[/tex]
