The average collection period is calculated by dividing the average balance of accounts receivable by total net credit sales for the period and multiplying the quotient by the number of days in the period.
use the following formula:
(Average Receivables/Net Sales)*365
150,000/750,000*365 = 73 days
_________________________________________________
Net sales=750,000
A/C receivables= 150,000
days in a year =365
Collection period= (A/C Receivables/ net sales)*days in a year
= (150,000/750,000)*365= 73 days
