A company has net income of $187,000, a profit margin of 8.6 percent, and an accounts receivable balance of $126,370. Assuming 60 percent of sales are on credit, what is the company’s days’ sales in receivables?

Respuesta :

Answer:

35.35  days

Explanation:

For the computation of company’s days’ sales in receivable first we do the following calculations

As we know that

Profit margin = Net income ÷ Sales

0.086 = 187,000 ÷ Sales

Sales = 2,174,418.605

So,

Credit sales = Sales × Sales percentage

= 2,174,418.605 × 0.6

= 1,304,651.163

Receivables turnover ratio = Credit sales ÷ Receivables

= 1,304,651.163 ÷ 126,370

= 10.3241

Now

Days sales in receivables = 365 ÷ Receivables turnover

= 365 ÷ 10.3241

= 35.35 days
