Working Capital Working capital consists of the current assets and the
current liabilities of a business. Current assets are gross working capital.
› Cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, and inventory
Net working capital is the difference between a business’s total current assets and its total current liabilities.

Working Capital Management
Working capital management is our ability to effectively and efficiently control current assets and current liabilities in a manner that will provide our firm with maximum return on its assets and will minimize payments for its liabilities.

Cash Management
The goal of cash management is to obtain the highest return possible on cash. Cash consists of:› Petty cash› Cash on hand› Cash in bank, checking› Cash in bank, savings

Cash Management (continued)
Float› The disbursement float is the time that elapses between payment
by check and the check’s actually clearing the bank, at which point funds are removed from our checking account.
› Collections float is the amount of time that elapses between your depositing a debtor’s check in your account and the check’s clearing, at which point the funds are actually placed in your account.

Float (continued)› Managing collection float:
– A lockbox is a post office box that is opened by an agent of the bank, and checks received there are immediately deposited in our account.
– Electronic funds transfer (EFT) is accomplished when funds are immediately transferred from one bank account to another via computer.

Marketable Securities Management
Marketable securities normally are those investment vehicles that include U.S. treasury bills, government and corporate bonds, and stocks.
Excess cash should be placed in the above vehicles because they increase in value more than cash itself.

Accounts Receivable Management
The goal of accounts receivable management is to increase sales by offering credit to customers. › Options to offering credit include:
– The business issuing its own credit card or line of credit.
– Factoring—selling accounts receivable to another firm at a discount off of the original sales price.

Accounts Receivable Management (continued)
The 3 C’s of credit:› A customer’s character is favorable if that customer has paid his
or her bills on time in the past and has favorable credit references from other creditors.
› Capacity to pay refers to whether the customer has enough cash flow or disposable income to pay back a loan or pay off a bill.
› Collateral is the ability to satisfy a debt or pay a creditor by selling assets for cash.

Accounts Receivable Management (continued)
Credit terms are the requirements that our business establishes for payment of a loan (the use of credit by a customer). › To speed up collections, cash discounts are often offered to a
business customer. An example would be 2/10 net 30. If the customer pays the bill within 10 days of the invoice a 2 percent discount is given. Otherwise the entire net is due 20 days later or at the 30th day.

Use of collection days:› If collection days exceed our credit terms, then we have to speed
up collections.
– Example: If we give terms of 30 days and we collect in 61 days as previously shown, then we have to speed up collections in order to better manage accounts receivable. We may also have to re-evaluate our credit policies.
› If collection days are less then our terms, then we have increased our liquidity. May also consider loosening credit policy.

Inventory Management The overall goal of inventory management is to minimize
total inventory costs while maximizing customer satisfaction.
Two primary decisions must be made:› Establish the reorder quantity (the number of items to order) › Establish the reorder point (that level of inventory at which a new
order will be placed).

discounts may override the EOQ formula. We will determine this by use of both the EOQ formula previously given and the total cost formula which is:

› Determining EOQ with quantity discounts requires the following procedures:
– Compute EOQ for each discounted price.
– If the computed EOQ falls within the discounted quantity area, then order the EOQ.
– If the EOQ does not fall within the discounted quantity area, then compute total inventory costs.
– Order the minimum quantity that provides the lowest overall total inventory costs.

Reorder Point Calculations › The reorder point (ROP) has three factors that are used in
determining the quantity of an item that exists when we actually place an order:
– Lead-time (L) is the time that lapses from order placement to order receipt.
– Daily demand (d) is the quantity of a product that is used per day.
– Safety Stock (ss) the quantity of stock you keep for variations in demand.

Just-in-time (JIT) is an inventory system where orders are delivered to satisfy daily, and in some cases hourly, demand. It is primarily used in manufacturing.› If daily demand can be accurately predicted› If vendor delivery reliability is outstanding› If vendors will deliver on an hourly or daily basis, then JIT
inventory can be used

Types of inventories› Raw materials are the items that a company uses in producing its
final product. › Work-in-process inventories are made up of those items that are
being produced.› Finished goods inventories are made up of those items that are
actually sold by the business.
› Maintenance, repair, and operating (MRO) inventories are made up of those items that are used by the firm in normal
operations, but are not manufactured or sold by the firm.

Inventory Management (continued)
ABC inventory analysis is based on the 80-20 rule or Pareto’s Law› A items: 5 to 10 percent of the inventory items (i.e., individual
stock numbers or stock keeping units) that make up approximately 75 percent of total costs
› B items: 10 to 15 percent of the inventory stock numbers that make up 10 to 15 percent of the total costs
› C items: The remaining 75 to 80 percent of the stock numbers account for only 10 to 15 percent of total costs (C items)

– With it, we obtain a credit limit, but we are not obligated to make payments unless we actually borrow the money.
– A line of credit is normally obtained from our primary bank.
– A line of credit is used when our cash outflow exceeds our cash inflow.

Cash discounts will normally appear on an invoice in terms such as 2/10 n30. › This means that the customer may deduct 2 percent off of the
invoice price if he or she pays within 10 days. › If the customer does not pay within 10 days, he has the use of
98% of the money owed for the next 20 days.› If the customer pays within 30 days, the net, or total amount, of
the invoice is due.› If he or she pays after 30 days, the credit agreement with the
seller normally stipulates that a monthly interest charge be added to the unpaid balance.

Accounts Payable Management (continued)
Calculations used in cash discounts:› A $10,000 invoice with terms of 2/10 n30› Option 1: Pay off the $10,000 with a payment of $9,800 within 10
days of the invoice date.
– This is computed by multiplying the invoice price by 1 minus the discount (1 - 0.02 = 0.98, and $10,000 x 0.98 = $9,800).
– Or by taking the invoice price times the discount and subtracting it from the invoice price ($10,000 x 0.02 = $200, and $10,000 - $200 = $9,800).

Calculations used in cash discounts (continued):› $200 is the cost paid on $9,800 for 20 days, or an interest rate of
2.04 percent ([$200 $9,800] x 100). › This will result in an effective annual interest rate of 37.23
percent (2.04 x [365 20days]). › The effective annual interest rate is obtained by multiplying the
time period interest rate by the number of time periods in an accounting year (365 20).
