Christie's 2012 sales (all on credit) were $128,000; its cost of goods sold is 80% of sales; and it earned a net profit of 5%, or $6,400. It turned over its inventory 7 times during the year, and its D50 was 35.5 days. The firm had fixed assets totaling $50,000. Christie's payables deferral period is 40 days. Assume 365 days in year for your calculations. a. Calculate Christie's cash conversion cycle. Round your answer to two decimal places. days b.
