Answer:

$230,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Days sales outstanding, DSO = 23 days

Annual sales = $3,650,000

Assume that it uses a 365 day year

Accounts receivable = (Annual sales × Days sales outstanding) ÷ 365 days

= ($3,650,000 × 23) ÷ 365 days

= $83,950,000 ÷ 365 days

= $230,000

Therefore, the Baxley Brothers has $230,000 balance in its accounts receivable.
