days of inventory on hand = number of days in a year/inventory turnover
days of inventory on hand = 365/9.1
days of inventory on hand = 40.11
days of payables outstanding = number of days in a year/accounts payable turnover
days of payables outstanding = 365/10.6
days of payables outstanding = 34.43
 
 
Operating cycle = days of sales outstanding + days of inventory on hand
Operating cycle = 32.8+40.11
Operating cycle = 72.91
 
 
Cash conversion cycle = Operating cycle - days of payables outstanding
Cash cycle = 72.91-34.43
Cash cycle = 38.48
