Andrew,
Total days or working days are correct. However, most finance managers use total days...because these are days the money would be collecting interest if it were in the bank. Also, quarterly DSO calculations are to short to paint an accurate picture and are given very little credence in the business community. I have assessed CSCC's DSO and it is a little high but still within the industry median quartile. Last year, their DSO was in the upper quartile, but the year before it was almost right where it is now. I believe Thomas White put a good post about reasons for DSO variences when this issue first surfaced. I have worked for D&B for 14 years.
