Answer: $800,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Day sales Outstanding = 40 days
Annual sales = $7,300,000
Total days for the year = 365 days
We need to know the average sales per day which will be:
= $7,300,000 / 365
= $20,000
DSO = Account receivable / Average sales per day
40 = Account receivable / 20,000
Account receivable = 40 × 20,000
= $800,000
Therefore, the account receivable balance is $800,000
