Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The receivables Turnover Ratio and Inventory Turnover Ratio is

receivables Turnover Ratio is

= Net credit sales ÷ average account receivable

= $86,000 ÷ ($6,500 + $6,900) ÷ 2

= $86,000 ÷ $6700

= 12.84 times

Inventory turnover ratio is

= Cost of goods sold  ÷ average account receivable

= ($86,000 × (1 - 49.8%) ÷ ($7,280 +  $7,300) ÷ 2

= $43,172 ÷ $7,290

= 5.92 times

b. The average days to collect receivables and inventory is

For receivables

= 365 ÷ 12.84 times

= 28.43 days

For inventory

= 365 ÷ 5.92

= 61.66 days
