    a. is an estimate of the length of time the receivables have been outstanding.

    Explanation:

    The average collection period can be calculated as follows: 365 days in a year divided by the accounts receivable turnover ratio.

    Days sales uncollected = Average Account receivable/Net sales*365

    A short collection period means prompt collection and better management of receivables. A longer collection period may negatively affect the short-term debt paying ability of the business in the eyes of management.
