Question

Fess Hardware Store had net credit sales of $8,500,000 and cost of goods sold of $5,000,000 for the year. The Accounts Receivable balances at the beginning and end of the year were $600,000 and $760,000, respectively. What was the accounts receivable turnover?

Answer 1

Answer: 12.5 times

Explanation:

The accounts receivable turnover tells you how effective your company's collection mechanism is.

Accounts Receivable turnover = net credit sales/accounts receivables

= 8500000/600000+760000 = 12.5 times.
