If the average collection period is 15 days and average book receivables is Rs. 60,000 then what will be the total annual credit sales?

Rs. 14,00,000
Rs. 9,00,000
Rs. 2,16,00,000
Rs. 1,08,00,000

The correct answer is D. Rs. 1,08,00,000.

The average collection period is the average number of days it takes a company to collect its accounts receivable. It is calculated by dividing the accounts receivable by the average daily sales.

The average book receivables is the amount of money that a company is owed by its customers. It is calculated by taking the total accounts receivable and dividing it by the number of days in the period.

The total annual credit sales is the total amount of money that a company sells on credit in a year. It is calculated by taking the average daily sales and multiplying it by the number of days in a year.

To calculate the total annual credit sales, we can use the following formula:

Total annual credit sales = Average daily sales x Number of days in a year

Average daily sales = Average book receivables / Average collection period

Number of days in a year = 365 days

Therefore, the total annual credit sales is:

Total annual credit sales = Rs. 60,000 / 15 days x 365 days = Rs. 1,08,00,000

Option A is incorrect because it is the total annual sales, not the total annual credit sales.

Option B is incorrect because it is the total annual credit sales divided by 2.

Option C is incorrect because it is the total annual credit sales multiplied by 4.
