Answer:

32.44 days

Explanation:

The computation of the average collection period is shown below:

But before that we have to determine the account receivable turnover ratio

So, the account receivable turnover ratio is

= (net sales) ÷ (average of account receivables)

= $25,875 ÷ ($2,400 + $2,200) ÷ 2

= $25,875 ÷ $2,300

= 11.25 times

Now the average collection period is

= Total no of days in a year ÷ account receivable turnover ratio

= 365 ÷ 11.25

= 32.44 days

We assume that the no of days that should be considered is 365 days

And it is always right to specify the $10,000 demanded by the executive as a separate cost from the initial cost of the project, if the money does not directly linked the the initial cost of the project.
