Answer #1

Answer to Requirement 1.

Cash Conversion Cycle = Days Inventory Outstanding + Days Sales Outstanding – Days Payables Outstanding
Cash Conversion Cycle = 75 days + 30 days – 45 days
Cash Conversion Cycle = 60 days

Answer to Requirement 2.

Days Inventory Outstanding = Inventory * 365/ Cost of Goods sold
75 days = Inventory * 365 / $350,000
Inventory = $71,917.81

Days Sales Outstanding = Accounts Receivable * 365 / Sales
30 days = Accounts Receivable * 365/ $800,000
Accounts Receivable = $65,753.42

Days Payables Outstanding = Accounts Payable * 365 / Purchases
45 days = Accounts Payable * 365 / $220,000
Accounts Payable = $27,123.29

Resources in Cash = Inventory + Accounts Receivable – Accounts Payable
Resources in Cash = $71,917.81 + $65,753.42 - $27,123.29
Resources in Cash = $110,547.94
