Ethan Industries has sales of $$200,000$ and accounts receivable of $$16,000,$ and it gives its customers $30$ days to pay. The industry average DSO is $27$ days, based on a $365-$day year. If the company changes its credit and collection policy sufficiently to cause its DSO to fall to the industry average, and if it earns $9\mathrm{.}0\%$ on any cash freed$-$up by this change, how would that affect its net income, assuming other things are held constant?
