DSO measures the average number of days it takes for a company to collect payment after a sale has been made. A higher DSO can indicate a delay in collections and potential cash flow constraints.
Your Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) is: 0 days
A lower DSO generally indicates a more efficient collection process, meaning the business receives payments faster and maintains healthier cash flow.
DSO is a key financial metric used to evaluate a company's accounts receivable turnover and collection efficiency.
Formula: DSO = (Accounts Receivable / Total Credit Sales) × Number of Days
DSO = (Accounts Receivable / Total Credit Sales) × Number of Days
Example: A business has $40,000 in receivables and $300,000 in credit sales over a 365-day year.
A DSO under 45 is often considered good, though it varies by industry.
Extremely low DSO might suggest overly strict credit policies that could discourage potential customers.
