Help!
My exam is tomorrow.
I was taught that to work our average inventory holding period you:
Closing inventory / COS *365
And to work out payables period you:
Payables/COS * 365
However these calculations do not give the correct answers in AAT mock exam 1 Q1.7
So how do you do it?

It's because to obtain the average inventory you need an average inventory calculation.
Try,
Opening inventory + closing inventory / 2.
Then use this figure instead of closing inventory and see if it works.AAT
