Indicate the effect of the following on the cash cycle: Accounts Receivable Period (AR Period) goes up

Note: AR Period is also called as the Average Collection Period

Group of answer choices

* No change

* Increase

* Decrease

Expert Solution

1) Calculation of operating cycle:

Particulars	Amount
Oprating cycle = Inventory conversion period+average collection period

Inventory converson period = 365/13.99	26.09
Average collection period= 365/24.52	14.89

Operating cycle = 26.09+14.89	40.98
Operating cycle =40.98 days

2)

Cash conversion cycle = Inventory conversion period+average collection period-payable deferral period

So increase in average collection period will increase Cash cycle. So correct answer is increase.
