Vici's receivables turnover ratio for the year is 2,5

Explanation:

We can calculate the Accounts receivable turnover by dividing net credit sales by the average accounts receivable for that period.

Accounts receivable turnover = net credit sales / average accounts receivable

In this case,

Net credit sales = 70% of total sales = 70% $1,000,000 = 700,000

To get average accounts receivable, add the value of accounts receivable at the beginning to the value at the end of the period and divide the sum by two

Average accounts receivable = ($220,000+$340,000) / 2

Average accounts receivable = $280,000

Then,

Accounts receivable turnover = 700,000/$280,000=2,5
