1. Calculate the receivables turnover ratio and the average collection period for WalCo, TarMart and CostGet.

2.Which company appears most efficient in collecting cash from sales?

Explanation:

                                  Beginning Accounts    Ending Accounts    Net Sales

                                  Receivable                   Receivable

WalCo                         $1,795                            $2,742                  $320,427

TarMart                      $6,066                           $6,594                     $65,878

CostGet                        $609                              $645                     $66,963

accounts receivable turnover ratio = net sales / average accounts receivable

WalCo = $320,427 / [($1,795 + $2,742)/2] = 70.63

TarMart = $65,878 / [($6,066 + $6,594)/2] = 10.41

CostGet = $66,963 / [($609 + $645)/2] = 106.80

average collection period = 365 / accounts receivable turnover ratio

WalCo = 365 / 70.63 = 5.17 days

TarMart = 365 / 10.41 = 35.06 days

CostGet = 365 / 106.80 = 3.42 days
