Expert Solution

Ending balance of Accounts Receivable

= Beginning accounts receivable + Credit sales - Cash collections - Write offs

= 200,000 + 1,125,000 - 1,025,000 - 50,000

= 250,000

Accounts Receivable Turnover = Credit sales/Average accounts receivables

= 1,125,000/[(200,000+250,000)/2]

= 1,125,000/225,000

= 5

Average collection period = 365/Accounts Receivable Turnover

= 365/5

= 73 days
