    Number of days sales in receivables

    = Average receivables x 365 days

    Sales

    = $49,041 x 365 days

    $578,168

    = 31 days

    Explanation:

    Average number of days sales in receivables is the ratio of average receivables to sales multiplied by 365 days. Average receivable is the aggregate of beginning and closing receivables divided by 2.
