Write a 350- to 525-word paper in which you complete the following:

  • Explain the difference between permanent and temporary working capital, and describe what a firm could do to minimize risk.
  • Evaluate how small adjustments made to total cash conversion can have a large impact upon the financial health of a company.
  • Describe Economic Order Quantity (EOQ Using the EOQ formula and an example product for your business, determine the optimal quantity of the item to purchase that will help to minimize the annual total costs of keeping that item in inventory.

ICP + RCP

  
     
     
 

Payables Deferral Period (PDP)

 Accounts Payable + Salaries & Benefits
  ——————————————————-
  Cost of Sales + Selling and admin. Expenses/365

 

  
     
Cash Conversion Cycle OC – PDP  

 

 

 

Cash conversion cycle exercise — part 2 of 2 (Show your work in the Excel template):

 

You have made some calculations on the cash conversion cycle — so you are a little comfortable with that process. Now, let’s say that you are in upper management, and you want to “tighten your ship” a little to increase your cash flow just on current operations. You ask for the following, reasonable goals:

 

1) A 10% decrease in average inventory.

2) A 10% decrease in accounts receivable.

3) A 10% increase in accounts payable.

 

While these adjustments are small and reasonable, redo your calculations and see just how much of a difference these small adjustments can make on the total cash conversion cycle.
