    The average days in inventory are 5 days

    Explanation:

    The average days in inventory is computed or evaluated as:

    Average days in inventory = COGS (Cost Of Goods Sold) / Average Inventories

    where

    COGS (Cost Of Goods Sold) amounts to $450,000

    Average Inventories is computed as:

    Average Inventories = Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory / 2

    where

    Beginning Inventory amounts to $80,000

    Ending Inventory amounts to $100,000

    Putting the values:

    Average Inventories = $80,000 + $100,000 / 2

    = $180,000 / 2

    Average Inventories = $90,000

    Now, putting the values above in the formula:

    Average days in inventory = $450,000 / $90,000

    = 5 days
