Answer:
a. In managing a firm's accounts receivable, it is possible to increase credit sales per day yet still keep accounts receivable fairly steady, provided the firm can shorten the length of its collection period (its DSO) sufficiently.

mathematically:
DSO = Accounts receivables / Annual sales / 365
