Default Finance Question

Hi All,

I just took the Thomas Edison 20-question mock exam for Principles of Finance. I only got two wrong....I'm happy with that.

One of my wrong answers was a silly mistake. But I can't figure out the reasoning behind the other question I got wrong.

Maybe an accounting/math/finance guru can help me understand how TESC came up with the answer they did.

Here's the question:

------
A firm has a current ratio of 2.4, a quick ratio of 1.5, an inventory turnover of 6 times, and current liabilities of $600,000. What is the firm's level of sales?

a. $1,420,000
b. $1,960,000
c. $2,160,000
d. $3,240,000 <---- Correct Answer
------

I understand each of the individual elements contained in the question. But I can't figure out how to put it all together to find the "level of sales".

Can anyone help?
