    1) Yes, but if is it then the business has enormous liquidity problems and is going to collapse It cannot continue trading on that basis for too long.

    2) bank and tax are irrelevant for these purposes – the operating cycle is measuring how ling cash is tied up in operations.

    (but both are obviously relevant when measuring liquidity in general)
