Computation of Cash Collected from Customers:

Cash collected from customers     $340,000

Explanation:

A) Accounts Receivable

Beginning Balance    $68,000

Sales                          375,000

less ending balance (103,000)

Cash collected       $340,000

B) The cash collection from customers is the difference between the beginning balance and the sales for the current year minus the ending balance, all other things being equal.  If you want to double-check this, you can start with the beginning balance, add the sales and subtract this cash collection from the sum to obtain the ending balance, thus:

Beginning Balance    $68,000

Sales                          375,000

Total outstanding   $443,000

less cash collection  340,000

Ending balance       $103,000
