Explanation / Answer

a. determine the reveivable turnover in each year. Receivables turnover = Net Sales/ Accounts Receivable 2010: 1,200,000/300,000 = 4 2011: 1,300,000/350,000 = 3.714 b. calcualte the average collection period for each year. average collection period = days*AR/credit sales 2010: 365*300,000/1,200,000 = 91.25 2011: 365*350,000/1,300,000 = 98.269 c. based on the receivables turnover for 2010, estimate the investment in recreivables if net sales were $1,3000,000 in 2011. 1,300,000/4 = 325,000 d. how much of a change in the 2011 receivables occured. Accounts receivables increased by 50,000
