Calculate the cash cycle for each industry. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Use 365 days a year. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 1 decimal place.)
Cash Conversion Cycle =Average Inventory days + Days of Account
Receivable -Days of Account Payable
Cash Conversion Cycle=365/(Cogs/Inventory)+365/(Sales/Account
Receivable)-365/(Cogs/Accounts Payables)
Cash Cycle foods =365/(613.1/84.8)+365/(683.9/73.6)-365/(613.1/66)
=50.5
Cash Cycle Pharmaceuticals
=365/(369.4/73.8)+365/(444.5/85.1)-365/(369.4/59.3) =
84.2
Cash Cycle Oil and Coal
=365/(774.8/61.2)+365/(819.0/69.80)-365/(774.8/67.3)
=28.2
Cash Cycle Pharmaceuticals
=365/(223.7/28.3)+365/(233.0/40.7)-365/(223.7/90.5) =-37.7
Cash Cycle Food Stores
=365/(468.0/44.9)+365/(491.2/24.4)-365/(468.0/40.7) =21.41
