Accounts receivable turnover enter the accounts receivable turnover in times rounded to 1 decimal place times The average collection period for 2022

Accounts Receivable Turnover 8.6 times

Average collections period 42.44 days

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine the average collection period for 2022 using this formula

Accounts Receivable Turnover = Sales/Average accounts receivables

Let plug in the formula

Accounts Receivable Turnover = 33,325 /[(3,400+4350)/2]

Accounts Receivable Turnover =33,325/(7,750/2)

Accounts Receivable Turnover =33,325/3875

Accounts Receivable Turnover = 8.6 times

Therefore the Accounts Receivable Turnover will be 8.6 times

B. Calculation to determine the Average collections period using this formula

Average collections period = 365/Accounts Receivable Turnover

Let plug in the formula

Average collections period= 365/8.6

Average collections period= 42.44 days

Therefore The Average collections period will be 42.44 days
