Cash Conversion Cycle is a metric that compares the amount of days it takes a company to sell inventory and collect receivables relative to the amount of days afforded to pay bills. It attempts to measure the time between the outflow and inflow of cash in the sales cycle.

For example, many companies buy inventory on credit as well as sell products on credit. These actions would increase the company’s Accounts Payable liability and Accounts Receivable asset, respectively. However, cash has not yet been involved in these transactions until the company actually pays its Accounts Payables or collects its Accounts Receivables. The Cash Conversion Cycle attempts to measure the time between these cash outflows and inflows.

A negative figure suggests a company is able to receive payments for product sales before having to pay suppliers. This is good for Net Working Capital and free cash flow.
