Question
Problem 9-18
A firm with sales of $21,000,000 has inventory of $1,800,000. The firm has no cash sales (all sales are on credit and are collected within 60
days). You are willing to sell inventory to the firm on credit provided that you will be paid within 77 days. Should you sell to this firm on credit?
Assume there are 365 days in a year. (This question is more subtle than it appears. Think through all the given information.) Round your answer
to the nearest whole number.
On average, it will take you
31
days to receive the payments, therefore, you should not v
sell to the firm on credit.
