<span>Cash conversion cycle is an efficiency ratio which measures the number of days for which a company’s cash is tied up in inventories and accounts receivable. It is aimed at assessing how effectively a company is managing its working capital. Formula Cash Conversion Cycle = DSO + DIO – DPO Where, DSO is days sales outstanding = Average Accounts Receivable × 365 ÷ Credit Sales DIO is days inventory outstanding = Average Inventories × 365 ÷ Cost of Goods Sold DPO is days payables outstanding = Average Accounts Payable × 365 ÷ Cost of Goods Sold DSO=(97,900*365)/324,000=110.2 DIO=(126,300*365)/282,000=163.5 DPO=(115,100*365)/282,000=149 Cash Conversion Cycle = DSO + DIO – DPO Cash Conversion Cycle = 110.2+163.5-149=125(Approx)</span>

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

                              = $420,400

Therefore, the conversion costs for the company is $420,400.

Firms that can employ and establish _________________, are more likely to protect their competitive advantage from being copied
pishuonlain [190]

Firms that can employ and establish <u>isolating mechanisms</u> are more likely to protect their competitive advantage from being copied and/or eroding away.

Isolation mechanisms:

A company is able to maintain its competitive edge for a longer period of time if it can stop a rival from copying the resource or capability that provides it that advantage. Isolation mechanisms is the name of this technique. For instance, a patent is a legitimate tool to stop imitation.

A firm's objective is to have a prolonged competitive advantage when a resource or capability gives the firm an advantage over competitors for an extended period of time. The industry will determine how long a company can preserve a competitive advantage.

If a business can maintain a competitive edge for a year in a fast-moving field like information technology or quick fashion, it may be quite happy. In an industry with less frequent changes, such as feminine hygiene, a persistent competitive advantage may remain considerably longer.

A sustainable competitive edge cannot be maintained by any company indefinitely. The competition is constantly working to improve its own competitive edge.
