Answer:
I) Days sales outstanding (DSO) for all customers? 48.7days
= (53*0.9)+(10*0.1) = 48.7 days
II) Net sales? $166.600
The Net sales = Gross sales - sales allowance
The discount amount due for the 10% discount customers = 2% of the 10% of 170 mn ==> 0.02 * 0.1 * 170 ===> 0.34 mn
∴ The Net sales = 17 - 0.34 mn = 16.66 mn
Amount paid by discount customers? $13.600
Explanation:
