Cost of goods sold = 85 percent of sales
Inventory turnover = 8.0
Accounts receivable turnover = 10.0
DPO = 30 days
a. DSO = (360 days)/10 = 36 days
b. Accounts receivable = $180,000/10 = $18,000 = $180,000/(360 days) x 36 days

14-19 Loan (a):
Because this is a simple interest loan that has no compensating balance and a maturity of one year, the
PDQ can borrow $90,000. No adjustments are made to the principal amount.

Check: If PDQ borrows $120,000 with a discount loan and the compensating balance is 15
percent, the amount of the loan that the company can use is:
Usable funds = $120,000 - $120,000(0.15) - $120,000[0.10/(360/360)]
