Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

(Q4) Receivables turnover ratio= 1.135

(Q1) Receivables turnover ratio= 1.153

Average collection period for Q1=31 7 days

Average collection period for Q4 = 317 days

Explanation:

The Receivables turnover ratio gives us the efficiency of collections and the Average collection period tells us the number of days in which the receivable is collected.

Three Months Ended (Q1) (Q4) (Q3)

9/30/2017 6/30/2017 3/31/2017

Balance sheets:

Accounts receivable, net $ 21,361 $ 19,880 $ 12,970

Income statements:

Sales revenue $ 24,620 $ 23,400 $ 22,260

Receivables turnover ratio= Net Sales / Average Accounts Receivable

Average Accounts Receivable= Net Receivables for one Quarter + Net Receivables for other Quarter/2

(Q3) Receivables turnover ratio= $ 22,260/ $ 12,970 + $ 19,880/2

(Q3) Receivables turnover ratio= $ 22,260/ 16425

(Q3) Receivables turnover ratio= 1.355

This indicates that average accounts receivable balance is converted into cash 1.355 times during the quarter.

(Q4) Receivables turnover ratio= $ 23,400 /$ 19,880 + $ 21,361 /2

(Q4) Receivables turnover ratio= $ 23,400 /20620.5

(Q4) Receivables turnover ratio= 1.135

This indicates that average accounts receivable balance is converted into cash 1. 135 times during the quarter.

(Q1) Receivables turnover ratio= $ 24,620/$ 21,361 ( assuming net is average)

(Q1) Receivables turnover ratio= 1.153

This indicates that net accounts receivable balance is converted into cash

1. 153 times during the quarter.

Average collection period for Q1 = 365/ Receivables turnover ratio

Average collection period for Q1= 365/1.153= 316.6= 317 days

Average collection period for Q1=31 7 days

Average collection period for Q4 = 365/Receivables turnover ratio

Average collection period for Q4 = 365/1.15= 317.4= 317 days

Very few people in the United States today attempt to follow the example of Henry David Thoreau in On Walden Pond and "go into t

valina [46]

Answer:

Being self-sufficient dramatically reduces one's standard of living.

Explanation:

Thoreau had a view that one should go into the woods, live simply and produce what you need with your own hands (be self-sufficient).

Economists explain why most people in the United States do not do this. To an economist everyone in society have their own specialisation. That is why they emphasize division of labour.

So going into the woods to be self-sufficient is not the best use of one's resources and abilities.

Everyone has something unique to contribute in an interaction. What I have comparative advantage producing will be difficult for another person.

This will create a network of people giving what they have comparative advantage producing in exchange for goods and services they do not have competitive advantage producing. This results in everyone maximising utility.

But Thoreau's view will not maximise utility because it is not possible you have advantage producing all you need.
