    The receivable balance is $ 442,000

    Explanation:

    The DSO is the abbreviation for Days Sales Outstanding and is referred to in no of days.

    Based on the data in the question, the average daily sales is $ 6,205,000 / 365 days.

    $ 6,205,000 / 365 days = $ 17,000 per day

    If the DSO is 26 days, we need to multiply the average daily sales by the number of days to get the receivable balance

    $ 17,000 * DSO of 26 = $ 442,000
