Bollocks Corp. is evaluating a possible change to their AR policy. Currently, they have $150,000 in sales on which they earn a profit margin of 8%. Their average collection period is currently 50 days, and they would like to improve it. They are considering offering a discount of 2% if customers pay within 10 days, with the balance owing within 30 days. This would result in a new average collection period of 15 days, and they expect 60% of the customers would take the discount. Bad debts have been 0% of sales but would become 0.5% of sales with the terms. Bollocks estimates it could earn a return of 11% on any freed up cash. Additional administrative costs associated with offering the discount would be $1,500 per year. a) Calculate the amount of AR under the current situation, and if they were able to improve their cash collections.
