Inventory Management
Williams & Sons last year reported sales of $86 million, cost of goods sold (COGS) of $70 and an inventory turnover ratio of 5. The company is now adopting a new inventory system. If the new system is able to reduce the firm's inventory level and increase the firm's inventory turnover ratio to 7 while maintaining the same level of sales and COGS, how much cash will be freed up? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.
