 Total sales revenue: $450,000
 Total cost of sales: $320,000
 Debtor days: 30
 15 new commercial customers

The Administration Manager has advised you th at at least 10 of the previous residential customers no longer
use the company’s services, so while sales revenue has increased, the sales revenue attributable to
esidential sales has declined.

In addition, follow up emails to the customers who no long er used the services indicated the following
esponses to the question asked about why they no longer use the services:
 Moved interstate: 1
