The Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) formula calculates the average number of days it takes for a company to collect payments from its customers. It is computed by dividing accounts receivable by total credit sales and multiplying the result by the number of days in the period. DSO serves as a key indicator of a company’s efficiency in managing its accounts receivable and cash flow, with lower DSO values generally indicating faster collection times and stronger liquidity.
