    Cash cycles: 11.95 days

    Explanation:

    Cash cycles shows the amount of time (in days) it takes a company to convert its investments in inventory to cash and caculated by following fomula:

    Cash Conversion Cycle = Days Inventory Outstanding (DIO) + Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) - Days Payable Outstanding (DPO)

    DIO = (Average inventories/cost of goods sold) x 365 = ($17,000/$455,000) x365 = 13.64 days

    DSO = (average accounts receivable/credit sales) x365 = ($33,000/$580,000) x365 = 20.77 days

    DPO = (average accounts payable/cost of goods sold) x365 = ($28,000/$455,000) x365 = 22.46 days

    Cash cycles = DIO+DSO-DPO=13.64+20.77-22.46 = 11.95 days
