Explanation / Answer

Answer:- 1)-Accounts receivable turnover ratio:-

= Net credit sales/Average accounts receivable

2017 = $4552000/($552500+$552300/2)

= $4552000/$552400

= 8.2 times

2016 = $3917000/($481500+$552500/2)

= $3917000/$517000

= 7.6 times

2)-Average collection period =Number of working days/ Accounts receivable turnover ratio

2017= 365 days/8.2 times =44.5 days

2017= 365 days/7.6 times =48 days
