Accounts receivable turnover

The ratio of net credit sales to average accounts receivable, which is a measure of how quickly customers pay their bills.

The number of times in each accounting period that a firm converts credit sales into cash. A high turnover indicates effective granting of credit and collection from customers by the firm's management. Accounts receivable turnover is calculated by dividing the average amount of receivables into annual credit sales. Also called receivables turnover. See also activity ratio, collection period.
