When the Debt Turnover Ratio is 4, what is the average collection period ?

  • A.5 months
  • B.4 months
  • C.3 months
  • D.2 months

Answer: C

The average collection period is 3 months. With a debtors turnover ratio of 4, debtors are collected four times a year, so the collection period is the year divided by the turnover.

\[ \text{Period} = \frac{12}{4} = 3 \text{ months} \]

A period of 5 months would need a turnover of 2.4, 4 months a turnover of 3, and 2 months a turnover of 6, so they do not fit the given ratio.
