Solution
Inventory Turnover Ratio=`"Cost of goods Sold"/"Average Inventory"`
`8 = 300000/"Average Inventory"`
Average Inventory = Rs 37500
Let Closing Inventory = x
Opening Inventory = 2x + x = 3x
Average Inventory
= `("Opening Inventory+ Closing Inventory")/2`
`37500 = (3x + x)/2`
or, 4x = 75000
x = 18750
Closing Inventory = x = Rs 18,750
Opening Inventory = 3x = 3 ×18,750 = Rs 56,250
