Macie Hanson · Answer 1

The days' sales in receivables are B. 148.37 days

Explanation:

The days' sales in receivables is calculated by using following formula:

The number of days' sales in receivables = 365/Accounts receivable turnover

In there:

Accounts receivable turnover = Net Credit Sales / Average Accounts Receivable

E-Shop, Inc. has net sales on account of $1,500,000 and average net accounts receivable of $610,000.

Accounts receivable turnover = $1,500,000/$610,000 = 2.46 times

The number of days' sales in receivables = 365/2.46 = 148.37 days
