What is Accounts Receivable Turnover Ratio Calculator
The Accounts Receivable Turnover Ratio Calculator is a tool used in finance to measure how efficiently a company is collecting its accounts receivable, which are the amounts owed by customers.
What is the Accounts Receivable Turnover Ratio?
The Accounts Receivable Turnover Ratio is a financial metric that shows how many times a company’s accounts receivable are collected (or “turned over”) during a specific period, typically a year. It’s an indicator of how well a company is managing the credit it extends to its customers and how quickly it is collecting owed funds
Accounts Receivable Turnover Ratio Formulas
1. Net Sales Formula:
\[ \text{Net Sales} = \text{Gross Sales} - \text{Refunds/Returns} - \text{Sales on Credit} \]
2. Average Accounts Receivables Formula:
\[ \text{AAR Formula} = \frac{\text{Beginning Accounts Receivable} + \text{Ending Accounts Receivable}}{2} \]
3. Accounts Receivable Turnover Ratio Formula:
\[ \text{ARTR Formula} = \frac{\text{Net Credit Sales}}{\text{Average Accounts Receivable}} \]
4. Accounts Receivable Turnover in Days Formula:
\[ \text{ART in Days} = \frac{365}{\text{Receivable Turnover Ratio}} \]
Example Calculation:
Assume a company has the following data:
- Gross Sales: $1,000,000
- Refunds/Returns: $50,000
- Sales on Credit: $450,000
- Beginning Accounts Receivable: $100,000
- Ending Accounts Receivable: $200,000
- Net Credit Sales: $500,000
The Net Sales is calculated as:
\[ \text{Net Sales} = 1,000,000 - 50,000 - 450,000 = 500,000 \]
The Average Accounts Receivable is calculated as:
\[ \text{Average Accounts Receivable} = \frac{100,000 + 200,000}{2} = 150,000 \]
The Accounts Receivable Turnover Ratio is calculated as:
\[ \text{Accounts Receivable Turnover Ratio} = \frac{500,000}{150,000} \approx 3.33 \]
The Receivable Turnover in Days is calculated as:
\[ \text{Receivable Turnover in Days} = \frac{365}{3.33} \approx 109.61 \text{ days} \]
This indicates that, on average, it takes approximately 110 days to collect the receivables.
