What is operating cycle?..

Answer / gurdeep singh

It is the time period involved in the conversion of raw
material/resources into finished goods or services
including the credit period involved for selling
products/services.
In simple language……. let me give you an extreme example

one month to convert this raw material into finished goods.
On 1st feb good are ready for sale i.e. stocked at
warehouse on 1st march goods are sold and on 1st april
