True

Explanation:

Order cycle time is the period between the two orders, i. e., previous order and next order. If there is an ample amount of demand for a product, the order cycle time of that particular product will be low. As customer wants the product very often, the inventory will become nil, and there will be a positive cash flow. As the inventory level decreases, the current assets will be lower. As customers pay quickly, the receivables will also remain lower.
