Answer : Cash Conversion Cycle = Days Inventory outstanding + Days Receivable Outstanding - Days Payable Outstanding
Days Inventory outstanding = (Average Inventory / Cost of Goods Sold) * Number of days
Days Inventory outstanding = (3000 / 20000) * 360
= 54 days
Assuming Number of days is 360 days
Days Receivable outstanding = ( Average Accounts Receivable / Annual Sales ) * Number of days
= (750 / 35000) * 360
= 7.7142857112
Days Payable Outstanding = ( Average Accounts Payable / COGS ) * Number of days
= (1500 / 20000) * 360
= 27
Cash Conversion Cycle = 54 + 7.7142857112 - 27
= 34.71 days
