A sale which takes place on first day of the quarter will be collected after 50 days.

The sale which takes place on 40th day will be collected on 90th day.

But the sales happening after the 40th day in a quarter wi be collected in next quarter.

Hence, only for first 40 days, the amount is collected in the same quarter while for remaining 50 days, it is collected in next quarter

Portion of sales collected in next quarter = 50/90 = 55.55%
