Choice 'c' is correct. II only - Average daily sales ($27,397) Average collection period (36.5) = $1,000,000 Avg gross A/R
Not I Days' sales in receivables (36.5) AR turnover 10 = 365 days in year.
Not III Net sales ($10,000,000) Avg gross receivables ($1,000,000) = 10 AR turnover.

From what I remember, a P3O is a virtual and decentralized setup, so I'll choose option C.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know there's an option to create a new record, but I can't remember if that's "Save and New" or "Save As". I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm a bit confused about the exact format. I know it needs to include the server's IP address, but do we also need to specify a specific path?
