Answer:

Receivables turnover = 11.50 times

Days' sales in receivables = 31.74 days

Average collection period = 31.74 days

Explanation:

<u>Receivables Turnover Ratio</u>

Receivables turnover = Credit Sales / Receivables

                                    = $3,804,200 / $330,800

                                     = 11.50 times

Receivables turnover ratio measures how many times a company's receivables are converted to cash in a period. A high receivables turnover ratio can indicate that a company’s collection of accounts receivable is efficient and that the company has a high proportion of quality customers that pay their debts quickly.

<u>Days' sales in Receivables/ Average Collection Period</u>

Days' sales in receivables = 365 days / Receivables turnover

                                            = 365 / 11.50

                                            = 31.74 days

On average, credit customers took 31.74 days to pay off their accounts.

The days' sales in receivable ratio which is also known as the average collection period tells you the number of days it took on average to collect the company's accounts receivable during the past year.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

A. wastefulness - production inside PPC ; B. Economy growth - PPC shift outwards/rightwards ; C. Economy at Productive Efficiency - production on PPC ; D. Unattainable Production- Outside PPC

Explanation:

PPC is graphical representation of production combinations that an economy can produce, given resources & technology.

PPC is based on assumption : That resources are best efficiently utilised. So, all product combinations ON PPC reflect 'Economy is at Productive Efficiency'

All production points INSIDE PPC reflect inefficient utilisation of resources i.e 'Wastage'

Points OUTSIDE PPC are 'Unattainable Product Combinations'- as they are beyond economy's best optimum production, given resources & technology.

'Economic growth' is increase in resources &/or technology which increases economy's production potential and PPC curve SHIFTS rightwards or outwards.
