    B. $ 248,100 is the sales on account

    Explanation:

    The Receivables movement is determined as follows:

    Opening receivables + Net Sales - Collections = Closing balance

    We solve this equation so that

    Net sales = Closing balance + collections - opening balance

    Net sales = $ 170,650 + $ 200,000 - $ 122,550

    Net sales = $ 248,100
