Frequently Asked Questions
DSO = (Accounts Receivable divided by Annual Revenue) times 365. This tool reports DSO in days as its sole output.
Both rely on the same underlying relationship between receivables, revenue, and time, but the Receivables Turnover Calculator's primary output is the turnover ratio (times per year), with DSO shown only as a secondary derived figure. This tool is built specifically around DSO in days as its only output, using your receivables balance directly.
Compare your result to the credit terms you actually offer customers - for example, if you invoice on Net 30 terms, a DSO well above 30 suggests customers are paying slower than your stated terms.
Your outstanding receivables balance (typically at period end, or an average if you prefer) - enter your own figure; the calculator uses it as-is.
