Understand the concept of Accounts Receivable (AR) Turnover Ratio: It measures how efficiently a company collects revenue from its credit sales. The formula is: \( \text{AR Turnover Ratio} = \frac{\text{Net Sales}}{\text{Average Accounts Receivable}} \).
Identify the given values: Net Sales is $200,000 and the balance of Accounts Receivable (AR) is $16,000.
Assume that the balance of AR given is the average AR for the period, as no other information is provided.
Apply the formula: Substitute the given values into the AR Turnover Ratio formula: \( \text{AR Turnover Ratio} = \frac{200,000}{16,000} \).
Calculate the AR Turnover Ratio using the substituted values to find how many times the company turns over its receivables in a period.
