| smiley25 | Operating cycle = 37 + 46 = 83 days |
| ashok1959 | can some one explain , why answer is 53 and not 83? |
| achu | CCC = operating cycle MINUS the average accts payable balance. Thus, 83-30 =53. |
| safash | difference between operating cycle & cash conversion cycle? |
| johntan1979 | Similar |
