A manufacturing company is working to improve its cash conversion cycle. Factory production has increased over the last year to increase inventory levels. They have an inventory turnover of 3.1 and asset turnover of 5.0. The company has a days’ payable of 30 and a days’ receivable of 60. It has started enforcing its net 30 terms and placed customers with balances outstanding more than 45 days on credit hold. As a result, the company collected receivables quicker but it suffered a 10% loss in sales. What can the company do to reduce its cash conversion cycle?
