Notes
Inventory period = 365 / Inv. Turnover
= 365 (Avg. Inv.) / COGS
18.8
Example Information
Inventory:
Beginning = 5000
Ending = 6000
Accounts Receivable:
Beginning = 4000
Ending = 5000
Accounts Payable:
Beginning = 2200
Ending = 3500
18.9
Receivables period
Average receivables = (4000 + 5000)/2 = 4500
Receivables turnover = 30,000/4500 = 6.67 times
Receivables period = 365 / 6.67 = 55 days

Factoring
EAR = [ 1 + {discount / (1 discount)}^(365/ACP) 1
The A/Rs are sold at a discount and the borrower is not
responsible for the default of the A/Rs (i.e., A/R financing)
A factor is an independent company that acts as an outside
credit department for the client. It checks the credit of new
customers, authorizes credit, handles collection and
bookkeeping.
The legal arrangement is that the factor purchases the A/R
from the firm. Thus, factoring provides insurance against bad
debts because any defaults on bad accounts are the factors
problem.

Example: Factoring
Last year your company had average accounts
receivable of $2 million. Credit sales were $24
million. You factor receivables by discounting
them 2%. What is the effective rate of
interest?
A/R turnover ratio= 24/2 = 12 times
Average collection period = 365/12 = 30.4 days
EAR = (1+.02/.98)365/30.4 1 = .2743 or 27.43%
