How much do I have to sell to make a 30% profit?

If I have $184,000 in inventory, $87,000 in monthly expenses, how much would my monthly sales have to be to keep my inventory level at $184,000 and make a 30% profit?

    OK right now YOUR expenses are 47% of YOUR inventory !

    87,000 divded by 184,000

    SO to GET 30% profit YOU would have to sell 77% of YOUR iventory

    which of course is $141,680.00 per month !

    was doing it long way then figured out short way !
