Respuesta :

Answer:

D) 18.2 times

Explanation:

The accounts receivable turnover is determined by dividing the total credit revenues by the average receivables.

The average receivables is the sum of the opening and closing receivable balances divided by 2.

The average receivables is  ( $ 1,189 + $ 955) / 2 =  $ 1,072

The total revenues in the absence of other information is considered as credit sales.

Average receivables turnover      = $ 19,548  /  $ 1,072  = 18.24 times
