    (1) $750,000

    (2) 12.56 times

    (3) 29.06 days

    Explanation:

    1. Average accounts receivable:

    = (Beginning Accounts receivable + Ending Accounts receivable) : 2

    = (725,000 + 775,000) : 2

    = $750,000

    2. Accounts receivable turnover ratio:

    = Net sales : Average account receivable

    = $9,420,000 : $750,000

    = 12.56 times

    3. Accounts receivable turnover in days:

    = 365 : accounts receivable turnover ratio

    = 365 : 12.56

    = 29.06 days
