$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-&Nike&Adidas\\sales&19887&10584\\B AR&2924&1736\\B all&80&120\\Net AR&2844&1616\\E AR&2948&1534\\E all&110&126\\Net AR&2838&1408\\\end{array}\right]$

Account Receivable TurnOver Formula

$\frac{net \: credit \: sales}{average \: account \: receivable} = AR \: TurnOver$

Where:

$average \: AR = (beginning \: AR + ending \: AR) \div 2$

• Nike:

(2844+2838)/2 = 2841 Average Inventory

$\frac{19887}{2841} = 7.00 \: AR \: turnOver$

• Adidas

(1616+1408)/2 = 1512 Average Inventory

$\frac{10584}{1512} = 7.00 \: AR \: turnOver$
