Therefore, net sales or net revenue, or net operating revenue are considered Credit Sales. - Average Collections Period and Average Sales Period are "in days". Therefore, round up to the next full day. Example, a calculated average collections period of 12.47 , should be rounded up to 13 days. - Gross Profit percentage, net profit percentage, and ROA must be presented as a percentage. Example, ROA is .4742 , show it as a percentage, 47.42%, rounded to 2 decimal places if needed. - All other ratios are times ratios. That is, X to 1 .
