High Inc. has annual sales of P40,000,000 and keeps average inventory of P10,000,000. On average, the firm has accounts receivable of P8,000,000. The firm buys all raw materials on credit, its trade credit terms are net 30 days, and it pays on time. The firm’s managers are searching for ways to shorten the cash conversion cycle. If sales can be maintained at existing levels but inventory can be lowered by P2,000,000 and accounts receivable lowered by P1,000,000, what will be the net change in the cash conversion cycle (in days)? Use a 360-day year. No rounding-off throughout the process.
