    By how much are customers paying early or late?

    B) 22.38

    Explanation:

    Days sales outstanding (DSO) represents the average number of many days it takes a business to collect its accounts receivables.

    DSO = (accounts receivables / total credit sales) x 365 days

    DSO = ($60,000 / $325,000) x 365 days = 67.38 days

    customers are paying late by 67.38 days - 45 days = 22.38 days
