Answer:

20Y9 20Y8

a. Accounts receivable turnover = 13.4x 11.7x

b. Days' sales in receivable = 27.2 days 31.2 days

c. The changes in the accounts receivable turnover and days' sales in receivables from 20Y8 to 20Y9 are favorable.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

20Y9 20Y8

Sales $8,375,000 $7,078,500

Accounts receivable:

Beginning of year 630,000 580,000 $1,210,000

End of year 620,000 630,000 $1,250,000

Average accounts

receivable = $625,000 $605,000

($1,250,000/2) ($1,210,000/2)

a. Accounts receivable turnover = Sales/Average accounts receivable

= 13.4x 11.7x

= ($8,375,000/$625,000) ($7,078,500/$605,000)

b. Days' sales in receivable = 365/Accounts receivable turnover

= 27.2 days 31.2 days

= (365/13.4) (365/11.7)

c. The changes in the accounts receivable turnover and days' sales in receivables from 20Y8 to 20Y9 are favorable.
