Step 1 - Calculation of payabble days

Operating Cycle = Inventory Days + Recievable Days

Cash Cycle = (Inventory Days + Recievable days) - Payable days

Since we are given operating cycle and cash cycle we can find out pabable days from the following equation

76 = 133 - Payable days

Payable days = 57

Step 2 - Calculation of payable turnover

Payable days = 365 / payable turnover

57 = 365 / payable turnover

payable turnover = 365 / 57 = 6.40
