CALCULATION
1) account recvable turnover ratio = net sales / average debtors
average debtors= (274000+240000) / 2 = 257000
=2,100,000 / 257000
= 8.17
2) average collection period =365 / account recvable turnover ratio
= 365 / 8.17
= 44.67 days
3) Inventory turnover ratio = COGS / average inventory
average inventory = (70000+90000) / 2 = 80000
= 1,500,000 / 80000
= 18.75
4) average invntry period = 365 / inventry turover ratio = 365 / 18.75 = 19.46
