Its costs of goods sold are 80% of sales, and it finances working capital with bank loans at 8% rate. Compute Primrose's cash conversion cycle (CCC)? If Primrose could lower its inventories and receivables by 10% each and increase its payables by 10%, all without affecting either sales or cost of goods sold, compute the new  CCC be, how much cash would be freed up, and how would that affect pre-tax profits?
