    On the other hand, a recommendation to improve the financial position of Sally’s Sunglasses during the next Fiscal Year is to collect accounts receivable in a sooner period, since the expected period of time is within 30 days. However, according to the number of days sales in receivable ratio it took 47.24 days to actually collect them. A possible solution is provide customers a discount if they pay their debt within the period of 30 days. Another point to take into account is the fact that the number of days sales are in inventory it is too long, 82.60 days. This problem could be solved by lowering the number of inventory purchased so that the period of 82.60 day could be reduced into a more reasonable period of time and the company could…

    We are alarmed that the receivables turnover for the first 5 months of the current year is low. As we assume that 1970 year-end accounts receivables equals 30-days worth of 1970 annual sales. (Exhibit 2) However, through the 3 years history of the business, the day’s receivables period has consistently been approximately 32.5 days. We concur with Mr. Edward’s recommendation that CCWC must begin offering the payment option of 1%/10 net 30 to reduce the cost of carrying large receivables. It would be in the best interest of CCWC’s customer base to take advantage of the discount.…
