Answer:

d) 38.4 days

Explanation:

Accounts receivable = 801,000 + 901,000 = 1,702,000

Average Account receivables = 1,702,000 / 2 = 851,000

Net credit sales = $8,049,000 / 851,000 = 9.5

The average collection period of the receivables in terms of days = 365 days / 9.5 =38.4 days

Accounts receivable days = 38.4 days
