Answer:

The AC Corporation takes 46 Days average to pay back its accounts payable.

Explanation:

Average Accounts Payable = $7863.5

Cost of Goods Sold = $63,008

Number of Days in Accounting Period = 365

Days Payable Outstanding = (Average Accounts Payable / Cost of Goods Sold) x Number of Days in Accounting Period

Days Payable Outstanding = ($7,863.5 / $63,008) x 365

Days Payable Outstanding = 45.55

Therefor, the company takes an average of 46 days to pay back its accounts payable.
