99.21
23.55
90.95
92.21
Computation of Company's Operating Cycle for Year 2:
Operating Cycle for Year 2 = Days' Sales of Inventory + Days' Sales Outstanding
Here,
Days' Sales of Inventory = 360/Cost of Goods Sold * Average Inventories = 360/$4,380,000 * (($780,000+$960,000)/2) = 71.51 days
Days' Sales Outstanding = 360/Receivables* Average Account Receivables = 360/$6,205,000 * (($350,000+$320,000)/2) = 19.44 days
Operating Cycle for Year 2 = 71.51 days + 19.44 days = 90.94 days
So, the correct option is 4th "90.95 days". The difference is due to rounding off.
