Days Payables Outstanding.
Environmental, Social and Governance.
 
A working capital management ratio calculated by dividing accounts payable outstanding at the end of a time period by the average daily credit purchases for the period. 
 
For example: a company has an average of £50,000 of payables over a year in which the cost of goods sold was £400,000.
 
The DPO is:
 
50,000 / 400,000 * 365 = 45.6 days
 
 
A higher number is generally perceived as better, but a business needs to maintain the goodwill of its suppliers and shorter payment terms may therefore be necessary.
 
 
Also known as creditor days.
