Hi, 


the net trading cycle shows how long the cash is tied up in a company's operations. 


It is closely related to the accounts receivable from clients (AR) and accounts payable to suppliers (AP) at a given time. 

However, based on AR, AP, and inventory balances, you need to calculate the relevant "days" ratios, which determine the net trading cycle. 


I hope this helps.


Best,
