Dorchester Company had the following balances at the end of 2018 and 2019 respectively:
Net Credit Sales - $835,000 for 2018 and $982,000 for 2019.
Accounts Receivable - $80,000 for 2018 and $103,000 for 2019.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - $5,000 for 2018 and 7,500 for 2019
Calculate the accounts receivable turnover ratio to one decimal place.
Net account Recievable (2018)= 80,000 - 5000=75,000
Net account Recievable (2019)= 103,000-7,500= 95,500
Average of account Recievable= (75,000+95,500)/2
= 85,250
Account Recievable turnover ratio (2018) =
credit sales/ net account recievable
= 835,000/75,000
= 11.1 times
Account Recievable turnover ratio (2019)
= Credit sales/ average account Recievable
= 982,000/85,250
= 11.5 times
Note average canont be used in 2018 because of balance of previous year not given
