Answer:
30%
Explanation:
The computation of return on investment is shown below:-
Return on Sales = Credit sales × Return on sales
= $24,000 × 5%
= $1,200
Investment in Accounts Receivable
= $24,000 × 1 ÷ 6
= $4,000
Return on Investment = Return on Sales ÷ Investment in Accounts Receivable × 100
= $1,200 ÷ $4,000 × 100
= 30%
Therefore for computing the return on investment we simply divide the investment in account receivable by return on sales.
