    a. 8.65 times

    b. 42 days

    Explanation:

    The computation of Receivables turnover ratio and days to collect is shown below:-

    a. Receivables turnover ratio = Net sales : Average receivables

    = $43,500 : ($5,180 + $4,880) : 2

    = $43,500 : ($10,060 : 2)

    = $43,500 : $5,030

    = 8.65 times

    b. Days to collect = 365 : Receivables turnover ratio

    = 365 : 8.65 times

    = 42 days
