Cash Conversion Cycle

Also called: CCC, working capital cycle

The cash conversion cycle measures how many days cash is tied up between paying suppliers and collecting from customers. A negative cycle — collecting before you pay — means customers fund your growth, which is the structural advantage behind Amazon and most subscription businesses. Shortening it releases cash without earning a cent more profit.

Formula

CCC = Days inventory + Days receivable − Days payable
