Most organizations make sales on credit. They usually deliver goods/services to their customers without taking the payments due immediately. There could be a credit cycle understanding between them and their customers who would make periodic payments for the goods/services rendered to them. This ratio is used to calculate the efficiency with which an organization is able to collect the payments due to them from their customers.
Formula:
ACP = Accounts Receivable / (Annual Credit Sales / 365 days)
Here, only credit sales are taken into consideration. Cash sales that are settled immediately are not considered for this calculation.
