Definition in English DSO – Days Sales Outstanding in Accounts Receivable

DSI – Day Sales Outstanding in Inventory

DPO – Days Sales Outstanding in Accounts Payable



The fourth was DWC or Days of Working Capital. This is simply DSO + DSO – DPO, or a way of expressing how much cash is tied up in Accounts Receivable and Inventory less the trade credit extended to you via Accounts Payable. Expressing it in terms of “Days of Sales” is a way making it comparable from one company to the next. Or making it comparable within a company over time as sales grow or decline.
