Answer: 30 days

Explanation: Cash cycle refers to the amount of time it takes for a business from paying cash to its suppliers for raw materials and receiving cash from its customers fro the sales made.

Hence from the above we can say that :-

decrease in inventory will decrease the cycle.

Decrease in receivables will decrease the cycle.

decrease in payables will increase the cycle.

Thus,

cash cycle =  31 days - 2 days + 4 days - 3 days

                  = 30 days
