Answer:

8.27 times and 44.13 days

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

As we know that

Account receivable turnover ratio = Net credit sales ÷ Average accounts receivable  

where,  

Net credit sales is $33,080

And, the Average accounts receivable would be

= (Accounts receivable, beginning of year + Accounts receivable, end of year) ÷ 2

= ($3,638 + $4,358) ÷ 2

= $3,998

So, the accounts receivable turnover ratio would be

= $33,080 ÷ $3,998

= 8.27 times

And the average collection period is

= 365 days ÷ accounts receivable turnover

= 365 days ÷ 8.27 times

= 44.13 days

The supply of dollars in an open economy depends on the interest rate, which is determined by the difference between imports and exports (which is the same as the difference between purchases and sales of foreign capital).

Andrew [12]

Answer:

A. If the motor scooter is sold for $2.480, then the net present value (NPV) for the product will be zero.

Explanation:

As we believe that The break even point is the point where the organization has no income gained and no loss incurred While the present net value is the value that determines whether or not the projects will be approved after considering the discounted cost.  

It means that if the original investment is less than the present value then the proposal is otherwise refused, the break even point is where the net present value is zero

Hence, the first option is correct
