- **Average Accounts Receivable (net):** $54,750
**Objective:**
Determine:
1. The accounts receivable turnover.
2. The days' sales in receivables.
**Instructions:**
When required, round your answers to one decimal place. Assume a 365-day year.
#### 1. Accounts Receivable Turnover
**Formula:**
\[ \text{Accounts Receivable Turnover} = \frac{\text{Sales}}{\text{Average Accounts Receivable (Net)}} \]
**Calculation:**
\[ \text{Accounts Receivable Turnover} = \frac{284,700}{54,750} \]
**Result Placeholder:**
\[ \boxed{\text{Input Calculation Result Here}} \]
#### 2. Days' Sales in Receivables
**Formula:**
\[ \text{Days' Sales in Receivables} = \frac{365 \text{ days}}{\text{Accounts Receivable Turnover}} \]
**Calculation:**
First compute the Accounts Receivable Turnover using the result from step 1.
Then,
\[ \text{Days' Sales in Receivables} = \frac{365}{\text{Accounts Receivable Turnover Result}} \]
**Result Placeholder:**
\[ \boxed{\text{Input Days Result Here}} \text{ days} \]
**Time Remaining:**
