Cash-to-cash cycle time is the “average number of days that it takes a business to convert cash spent for raw material and other resources into cash inflows from sales” (Jacobs and Chase, 2014, p. 436). Cash flow is critical for any type of organization, but in the supply chain world, it shows how quickly an organization can create cash from raw material. In the simulation assignments, we see how long it takes from ordering supplies, to producing the product, to shipping the product, and finally receiving a payment from the customer once the supplies are delivered. Sometimes it can take a few weeks before the organization is able to receive payment on products they shipped two weeks ago.
