    Days sales outstanding = 256 days

    Average accounts receivable = $109589

    Average accounts receivable = $ 98630 would decrease

    Explanation:

    days sales outstanding = accounts receivables / average sales per day

    = (800000*0.7) / (800000/365)

    = 560000 / 2191.780822

    = 255.5 days

    days outstanding collection = (average accounts receivables / credit sales) * 356

    50 days / 365 = average receivables / 800000

    0.1369863014 * 800000 = average receivables

    average receivables = 109589.0411

    using same formula

    days outstanding collection = (average accounts receivables / credit sales) * 356

    45 days / 365 = average receivables / 800000

    average receivables = 0.1232876712*800000 = 98630.13699
