| chenyx | operating cycle=inventory period + collection period cash conversion cycle= operating cycle - payment period |
| cleopatraliao | chenyx: r u sure what ur sayin is correct? |
| thekobe | cleo that is correct, cash conversion= days receivables + days inventory - days payable |
| johntan1979 | General consensus: CCC = OC |
| strivealex | Operating Cycle is different from CCC Operating Cycle = DOS + DOI CCC = DOS + DOI - No. of days Payable |
| Shaan23 | johnatan has been pretty good commenting throughout but he's off on this one... strivealex is correct |

| Inaganti6 | Johntan your lack of veracity is quite surprising. you've been a spectacular commentator throughout and I kept thinking to myself this guy Johntan is going to ace this exam. CCC IS NOT OC. OC - A/C Payables Period = CCC. |
| FozzeyBear | johntan1979 lies to the other test takers once again |
I am happy to say that I passed! Your study notes certainly helped prepare me for what was the most difficult exam I had ever taken.
