d. Cash conversion cycle (in days):
Inventory turnover and DSO look strong. Turning over inventory about
30 times per year (every 12 days) is fast, and collecting average
receivables in only 10 days is also very fast. However, the company is
taking 135 days to pay off its accounts payable. This is quite slow,
indicative of a company that is having difficulty paying its trade
creditors. Companies who continue to do this could face future credit

TO: Cole Binder Investment Committee
FROM: Student Name
SUBJECT: Investment Recommendation
I recommend that we invest in Tower.org for the following reasons:
1. Tower.org’s. return on equity (ROE) is 5% higher than Graphics
Imaging’s. An investment in Tower.org should therefore produce a
higher return than an investment in Graphics Imagings stock.
2. Tower.orgs ROE exceeds its return on assets by a wider margin than
does Graphics Imaging’s. This means that Tower.org is earning more
This suggests that cash flow is stronger at Tower.org.
5. Tower.org’s gross profit percentage is higher than Graphics
Imagings.
6. Graphics Imaging is better than Tower.org on inventory turnover and
net income as a percentage of sales. These ratios provide insight
Student responses may vary.

The factors that need the most improvement are inventory turnover and
collection of accounts receivable. The company needs to make more
sales and keep less inventory on hand, as well as tighten collection
policies. This will provide more cash that can be used to pay off
payables more quickly.
