The average receivables balance is $29,589

The Receivables turnover is 6.08 times

Explanation:

Dome Metals has credit sales of $180,000 yearly and the average collection period of 60 days.

The average collection period = 365 days/Receivables turnover ratio = (365 days x average account receivables)/Credit Sales

Average account receivables = (The average collection period x Credit Sales)/365 = (60 x $180,000)/365 = $29,589

Receivables turnover ratio= 365/The average collection period = 365/60 = 6.08 times
