Rhianna · Answer 1

The accounts receivable turnover rate is 21.73

Explanation:

The formula for accounts receivable turnover is

365/Average days to collect.

This way we can find how many times a year does the company collect payments for its accounts receivable, so when we divide the total number of days in a year by the average number of days to collect we can calculate how many times we collect payment for accounts receivable.

In the question we are given the average days to collect which is 16.8

We have to put that into a formula

365/16.8=21.73
