    The receivables turnover is 71.1 times for Walco, 5.0 times for TarMat and 53.7 times CostGet

    The average collection period for Walco is 5.1 days, 73.0 days for TarMart and 6.8 days for CostGet

    Explanation:

    The formula for receivables turnover is net credit sales divided average receivables

    Walco TarMart CostGet

    Receivables turnover

    $315,427 / ($1745+$2692) 71.1

    $60,878 / ($5816+$6344) 5.0

    $61,963 / ($559+$595) 53.7

    Average collection period

    =365/receivables turnover

    365/71.1 5.1 days

    365/5.0 73 days

    365/53.7 6.8 days
