什麼是DSO(Days Sales Outstanding ),如何計算DSO?
計算DSO的三種方法:(1)期間平均法。(2)倒推法。(3)賬齡分類法
(1)期間平均法。 這是最普遍的方法,但也是誤差最大的計算方式。
計算的期間可以是三個 月、半年或者一年。
DSO=期未應收賬款餘額/這一時期的銷售額×這一時期的天數
(2)倒推法。
倒推法是以最近的一個月為開始,用總的應收賬款減去的總天數,總天數即為DSO。
這種DSO的計算方法注重最近的賬款回收業績,而非全年或半年的業績。
這種方法是使用率最高的一種方法。
(3)賬齡分類法 這種方法綜合考慮了賒銷和賬齡的關係。

Investopedia explains Days Sales Outstanding - DSO

The DSO can be used to determine whether a company is trying to disguise weak sales, or is generally being ineffective at bringing money in. For most businesses, DSO is looked at either quarterly or annually.
