b. 30.2
c. 12.1
d. 28.7

Answer 1

d. 28.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine the days to collect during year

Using this formula

Average collection period=Average accounts receivables/Net sales*365

Where,

Average accounts receivables=$66,000+$72,900/2

Average accounts receivables=$69,450

Let plug in the formula

Collection period =$69,450/$882,000*365

Collection period=28.7 days

Therefore the days to collect during year is 28.7days
