A firm has a cash conversion cycle of 70 days. Annual outlays are R17.5 million and the cost of
negotiated financing is 9.66%. If the firm reduces its average age of inventory by 12 days, the
annual saving will approximately be … (assume 365 days per year).
1. R40 000.
2. R55 578.
3. R81 918
4. R104 000
To calculate the annual saving when reducing the average age of inventory by 12 days, we
need to calculate the reduction in the cash conversion cycle. The cash conversion cycle is
the average number of days it takes for a firm to convert its inventory into cash. In this
case, the cash conversion cycle is reduced by 12 days. .
To calculate the annual saving, we can use the formula:
Annual Saving = (Reduction in Cash Conversion Cycle / 365) * Annual Outlays * Cost of
Negotiated Financing
Plugging in the values:
Annual Saving = () * R17.5 million * 9.66%
The annual saving will be approximately R55,578.
All of the following are outfl ows of cash EXCEPT…
1. an increase in inventory.
2. a decrease in notes payable.
3. a decrease in accounts receivable.
4. an increase in accounts receivable.
