Corner Store Industries has annual sales of $662,070 and cost of goods sold of $494,160. The profit margin is 4.4 percent and the accounts payable period is 29 days. What is the average accounts payable balance

Respuesta :

The average accounts payable balance is $39,062.

Given,

Annual sales = $662,070

Cost of goods sold = $494,160

Profit margin = 4.4 percent

The accounts payable period = 29 days

The formula for account payable days is:

Accounts payable days = (Average accounts payable/Cost of goods sold) × 365 days

Now substituting the given values in the formula of account payable days we get,

29 = (Average accounts payable/494160) × 365

Average accounts payable = (29 × 494160)/365

                                             = 1,43,30,640/365

                                             = $39,262.027

                                             = $39,062 (approximately)

Hence, the average accounts payable balance is $39,062.
