1. Days Inventory indicates the number of days of goods in sales that a company has in the inventory.

Vocera Communications's Days Inventory for the three months ended in Dec. 2021 is calculated as:

Days Inventory	=	Average Total Inventories (Q: Dec. 2021 )	/	Cost of Goods Sold (Q: Dec. 2021 )	*	Days in Period
	=	7.6195	/	21.034	*	365 / 4
