Answer: 130 days

Explanation:

The Cash Conversion Cycle is a measure that attempts to show how many days on average it takes a company to convert resources into cash.

It is calculated with the following formula,

= Days of Inventory Outstanding + Days of Sales Outstanding - Days of Payables Outstanding

Where,

Days of Inventory Outstanding is the amount of days it takes to convert inventory to sales

Days of Sales Outstanding is the amount of time it takes debtors to pay the company for goods they bought and,

Days of Payables Outstanding is the time it took the company to pay for the goods it bought

Plugging in the figures we have,

= 100 + 60 - 30

= 130 days

The firm's cash conversion cycle is 130 days.

Reasons why South African post office taking private courier companies to court​
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

As the only operator of this kind in South Africa, the Post Office has the exclusive right to provide delivery services for all letters, postcards, printed matter, small parcels, and other postal articles up to and including 1kg.

PostNet was initially ordered to stop delivering all packages weighing 1kg and less by 17 March 2020. However, it secured an interdict which allowed it to continue to deliver these packages until the full challenge was heard in the Gauteng High Court.

The Post Office, Postnet and the South African Express Parcel Association (SAEPA) are now set to head to court in a move that could have ramifications for the entire courier industry in South Africa.

Icasa spokesperson Paseka Maleka told BusinessDay that the regulator would give its support to the Post Office as it was following the letter of the law, which allowed private couriers to only deliver food items in the 1kg or less category.

“Icasa’s mandate is to implement what the law requires, and we are doing exactly that,” he said.

“There are exemptions that deal with businesses that do not fall under postal services. Uber Eats, Mr Delivery, etc are such businesses. Obviously, one cannot expect Sapo to be delivering pizza to a consumer,” he said.

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The most I could pay for the investment is $12,960.09  

Explanation:

The maximum a rational investor could pay acquire an investment is the present value of all future cash flows receivable from the investment.

In the case, the present of all cash flows is calculated thus:

Years  Cashflows [email protected] 12% PV

1          5000 0.892857143  4,464.29  

2          5300 0.797193878  4,225.13  

3           6000 0.711780248  4,270.68  

   Total of present values               12,960.09

Stretch goals expect group members to _____.
rewona [7]

Answer:

The answer is work outside their own comfort group as they attempt to understand others’ perspectives.

Explanation:

Stretch goals tend to be a form of job enrichment, where individuals are challenged to perform better than their most recent performance achievement. In the context of group assignment, individuals are challenged to try things outside of their comfort zone. Stretch goals aren’t related to actual physical exercise, thus making answer (B) wrong, and automatically disqualifying answer (D). Nor does it require members to (A) take a break in order to avoid topic-fatigue.
