Question

The following are the two ratios discussed in your text with respect to analysis of accounts receivable:

A/R turnover ratio = Net Credit Sales/Ave. Net A/R

Days in A/R = 365/AR turnover ratio

In most cases, companies do not disclose "credit sales" separately from "cash sales" in their annual report. Thus Net Sales [or Net Revenues] is frequently used in the A/R turnover ratio. If a restaurant company's A/R turnover ratio = 51.2 [excessively high, as mainly cash sales, as remember credit card sales are treated as cash sales] compute the company's "days in A/R".

A. 7.13
