Answer:

Days of receivable will be 75 days

Explanation:

We have given net credit sales = $1200000

Net account receivable at the beginning = $290000

And receivable at the ending = $201000

Average receivable [tex]=\frac{290000+201000}{2}=$245500[/tex]

Now receivables turnover ratio [tex]=\frac{credit\ sales}{average\ receivable}=\frac{1200000}{245500}=4.888[/tex]

Days of receivables = [tex]\frac{365}{4.888}=74.67=75days[/tex]
