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

Answer:

<u>Annual rate of return which will be earned from today is 5.89%</u>

Explanation:

FV = PV (1+r)^n

r is int Rate per anum abd n is balance period

10000 = 6700 ( 1 + r)^n

10000 = 6700 ( 1 + r)^7

( 1 + r)^7 = 10000 / 6700

= 1.4925

1+r = 1.4925^(1/7)

= 1.0589

r = 1.0589- 1

= 0.0589 i.e 5.89%
