Walmart

DIO = $32,191 / ($240,391/ 365 days) = 48.88 days

DSO = $2,662 / ($315,654 / 365 days) = 3.08 daysOperating Cycle = 48.88 + 3.08= 51.96 days

Target

DIO = $5,838 / ($34,927/ 365 days) = 61.01 days

DSO = $5,666 / ($52,620 / 365 days) = 39.30 daysOperating Cycle = 61.01 + 39.30 = 100.31 days

Costco

DIO = $4,015 / ($46,347/ 365 days) = 31.62 days

DSO = $400 / ($52,935 / 365 days) = 2.76 daysOperating Cycle = 31.62 + 2.76= 34.38 days

Cash Conversion Cycle

Walmart

DIO = $32,191 / ($240,391/ 365 days) = 48.88 days

DPO = $25,373 / ($240,391/ 365 days) = 38.53 daysCCC = 48.88 + 3.08 - 38.53 = 13.43 days

Target

DIO = $5,838 / ($34,927/ 365 days) = 61.01 days

DSO = $5,666 / ($52,620 / 365 days) = 39.30 days

DPO = $6,268 / ($34,927/ 365 days) = 65.50 daysCCC = 61.01 + 39.30 - 65.50 = 34.81 days

Costco

PROBLEM 9.5)

Kocoa Industries

Projected Sales

$ 750,000

Assets- % of sales

90.0%

Liabilities- % of sales

20.0%

Net Margin

1.0%

Dividend payout

0.0%

Assets needed (1) 90% of sales 675,000.00

Spontaneous liabilities (2) 20% of sales 150,000.00

Net Income (3) 1% of sales 7,500.00

External funds needed (4) 517,500.00

EFN= (1)- (2)- (3)

= 675,000 - 150,000 - 7,500

= 517,500

B. In my own opinion I won’t be that much comfortable using the technique above for funding requirements. Although compared to a more detailed strategic financial planning technique, the technique used above is quite simple and less complicated than those of the detailed one but as a financial analyst we wanted to make sure and be accurate of such recommendations we are giving out towards others thus careful and deliberate procedure must be observed to avoid any unwanted situation, thus a fully integrated strategic financial plan should be more prefer.

C. Other information I think which are important to be obtained are of course the financial statements along with the calculated projections or forecast, and the assumptions of the company.
