    b. 42.12 days

    Explanation:

    Calculation for Graber company's average collection period will be:

    Using this formula

    Average collection period = Sales/[ (Beginning accounts receivable + Ending accounts receivable) / 2]

    Let plug in the formula

    130,000/[ (18,000 + 12,000) / 2]

    =130,000 / (30,000/2)

    130,000/15,000

    = 8.66days

    Hence,

    365/8.666666

    =42.12 days

    Therefore Graber company's average collection period will be 42.12 days
