The length of the cash conversion cycle for a firm with $3 million in inventory is 70.41 days.
Days of inventory outstanding= 365/ Inventory turnover
Formula for calculating inventory turnover:
Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold/Average Inventory
= $18 million / $3 million
= 6
Days of inventory outstanding= 365/ 6 = 60.83 days
Days of payable outstanding= 365/ Payables turnover
Payables turnover = Cost of Goods Sold/ Average Payables
= $18 million / $1.5
= 12
Days of payable outstanding= 365/ 12
= 30.42 days
Cash conversion cycle= Days of inventory outstanding + Days of sales outstanding – Days of payables outstanding
= 60.83 days + 40 days - 30.42 days
= 70.41 days.
