Question
### Accounts Receivable Turnover and Days' Sales in Receivables

A company reports the following financial data:

- **Sales:** $284,700
- **Average Accounts Receivable (net):** $54,750

**Objective:**
Determine:
1. The accounts receivable turnover.
2. The days' sales in receivables.

**Instructions:**
When required, round your answers to one decimal place. Assume a 365-day year.

#### 1. Accounts Receivable Turnover
**Formula:**
\[ \text{Accounts Receivable Turnover} = \frac{\text{Sales}}{\text{Average Accounts Receivable (Net)}} \]

**Calculation:**
\[ \text{Accounts Receivable Turnover} = \frac{284,700}{54,750} \]

**Result Placeholder:**
\[ \boxed{\text{Input Calculation Result Here}} \]

#### 2. Days' Sales in Receivables
**Formula:**
\[ \text{Days' Sales in Receivables} = \frac{365 \text{ days}}{\text{Accounts Receivable Turnover}} \]

**Calculation:**
First compute the Accounts Receivable Turnover using the result from step 1.

Then,
\[ \text{Days' Sales in Receivables} = \frac{365}{\text{Accounts Receivable Turnover Result}} \]

**Result Placeholder:**
\[ \boxed{\text{Input Days Result Here}} \text{ days} \]

**Time Remaining:**
1:48:20 (Note: This is the remaining time for an unspecified task, not part of the educational content.)
