Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

Inventory turnover is calculated as the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) divided by the average inventory, including raw materials, work in process, and finished goods. In this problem, the COGS is $520,000,000, and the average inventory is the sum of raw materials, work in process, and finished goods: $24,300,000 + $15,600,000 + $19,200,000 = $59,100,000. Therefore, the inventory turnover is $520,000,000 / $59,100,000, which is approximately 8.8.
