What is DSO (Days Sales Outstanding)?

loader
Daily Sales Outstanding: this is a measure used to compare and understand debtors. Sales are divided by the number of days in the reporting period to calculate the average sales per day. Then the debtors are divided by the average sales per day to determine how many days sales are locked in debtors, which also provides an indication of the average credit period offered to customers.
