Answer: B) Dover Wholesalers is financing 100 percent of Benn Retailer's operating cycle.

Explanation: The operating cycle is the account receivable period added to the inventory period,

Operating cycle :

Benn retailers = 22+15 =37 days

Dover Wholesalers = 44 + 8 = 52 days

Cash cycle = account receivable - account payable + inventory period

Benn retailers = 22 - 44 +15 = - 7

Dover Wholesalers = 44 - 63 + 8 = - 11

Therefore what is correct according to the statement above is that Dover wholesalers is financing 100% of Benn Retailer's operating cycle as Benn retailers purchase exclusively, that all it's goods or products from Dovers which could probably mean that Dovers is using Benn to retail its product to consumers.
