Explanation / Answer

a) Average collection period = 365 / accounts receivable turnover ratio

= 365 / 14.48

= 25 days (approx)

Accounts receivable turnover ratio = Net credit sales / Average accounts receivable

= 9585000 / 662000

= 14.48

b) if they reduce average collection period to 14days,then new accounts receivable =

Average collection period = 365 * Accounts receivable / Net Credit sales

14 = 365 * Accounts receivable / 9585000

Accounts receivable = 367643.83

c) Inventory turnover ratio = 7.5

Inventory turnover ratio = cost of good sold / Average inventory

7.5 = 7,020,000 / Inventory

Inventory = 936000

Gross profit margin = 48%

Cost of goods sold = 1 - 0.48 = 52%

Cost of goods sold = 13500000 * 0.52 = 7,020,000
