Solution

To calculate the company's days' sales in inventory for Year 2, we need to use the following formula:

Days' Sales in Inventory = (Ending Inventory / Cost of Goods Sold) x 365

From the data provided, we know that the ending inventory for Year 2 is 281,000andthecostofgoodssold(COGS)forthesameyearis281,000 and the cost of goods sold (COGS) for the same year is 476,400.

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

Days' Sales in Inventory = (281,000 / 476,400) x 365

This gives us approximately 216 days.

So, Graceworks, Corp. had approximately 216 days' sales in inventory for Year 2.
