    b. the average number of days to collect receivables is 31.

    Explanation:

    The calculation of average number of days is shown below:-

    Accounts receivable turnover = Net credit sales : Average accounts receivable

    $240,000 : $20,000

    = 12

    Average number of days to collect receivable = Number of days in a year : Accounts receivable turnover

    = 365 : 12

    = 31 days

    Therefore for computing the average number of days to collect receivable we simply divide accounts receivable turnover by number of days in a year.
