SNC has its own, modest internet-based business. However, the company has been approached by Golden Years Nutraceuticals, a much larger online distributor of third-party brands with connections to a national healthcare website endorsed by a leading senior advocacy association. Therefore, Golden Years reaches a large-and increasing-consumer base of older Americans. This opportunity would generate an additional 10% increase in sales in 2016, followed by increases of 5% in 2017 and 3% in 2018. Increasing the percentage of SNC's business that is conducted online would decrease DSO, because internet sales are collected very quickly. Accounts receivable would decrease by 7 days in the first year and by an additional 3 days in 2017, for a total improvement of 10 days. In 2018, the DSO would decline by another 2 days-in effect, 12 days lower than at the start of 2016. Going forward, the DSO would stay at this lower level and SNC's profit margin would remain unchanged. What would you like to do about this opportunity? Accept or Decline
