1 Applied mathematics in Engineering, Management and Technology 2 (6) 2014: Investigating the Relationship between Working Capital Management and Net Trade Cycle, with the Profitability: Evidence from Tehran Stock Exchange Hadi Yahyaee *1, Abbasali Pouraghajan 2 1 Department of Accounting, Science and Research Branch, Islamic Azad University, Mazandaran, Iran 2 Department of Accounting, Qaemshahr Branch, Islamic Azad University, Qaemshahr, Iran Corresponding Author hadiyahyaee@yahoo.com ABSTRACT: This study has paid to investigate the relationship between working capital management and net trade cycle, with the profitability of listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange. To this end, were selected 130 companies during the period In this connection, we have studied the components of working capital, including cash conversion cycle and net trade cycle, with return on assets, return on sales and return on equity firms. Company size (as measured by the natural logarithm of sales) and financial leverage has been used as a control variable. For the analysis, was used a panel of multiple regressions - data. The results show that there was no significant relationship between cash conversion cycle and return on equity. But there is an inverse relationship between the cash conversion cycle and return on assets and return on sales. There is also a significant inverse relationship between net trade cycle, with the indicators of profitability (return on assets, return on sales, return on equity). The results show that if the cash conversion cycle and net trade cycle rise led to a decline indexes in corporate profitability and managers can reduce the cash conversion cycle and net trade cycle minimum level may produce a positive value for shareholders. Keywords: working capital management, profitability, cash conversion cycle, net trade cycle. 1.Introduction More than a hundred years of financial management as a scientific discipline has undergone major developments and every day has become more widespread, and various areas to become more specialized, and continue to play its role in organizations. In the past century, manufacturing companies produce large quantities of goods in quantity and they make huge profits. This will gradually be used in financial management, planning and control problems, especially in terms of liquidity power and working capital management to become a specialist sector entity and many managers spend their time the daily full of energy and manage their working capital (Vakili Fard et al., 2010). The economic world is rapidly changing. Keep pace with rapid technological change, increasing global competition, the heavier will be the responsibility of managers in their activities. One of the basic activities of the management decisions. There is in all fields of financial decision making problem, and this is no exception of working capital management (Rahnamay Rudposhti and Kiani, 2008). In the present study, which is conducted in the field of financial management, attempts to use the concepts and theories of financial management, library research, the relationship between working capital management and profitability are examined and explained in firms listed in Tehran Stock Exchange. 2.Problem Statement Working capital management is considered one of the important fields of financial management, organizational management, because it directly affects the liquidity and profitability of the company. There is the possibility of bankruptcy for firms that are exposed to the mismanagement of working capital, even if positive profits. Working capital management is related assets and current liabilities. Current assets of a company, makes up a significant part of its total assets. Excessive levels of current assets can lead to the realization of the return on 74
2 investment is less than the standard minimum. However, companies that have little current assets, will be shortages and difficulties in the process of normal operations (Rahman and Nasr, 2007). A common criterion for assessing the working capital management, cash conversion cycle is the time between expenditures for the purchase of raw materials, and the receipt of goods sold amounts. The longer this period, the additional investment is done in working capital. Long cash cycle might increase profitability because it leads to increased sales. However, if the cost of more investment in working capital is greater than the benefits of holding inventories, or more trade credit to customers, profitability of the entity may be reduced by increasing the cash cycle. An another criterion for assessing the management of working capital is net trade cycle. Net trade cycle can tell a company how many cycles over the years and how much money remains stuck in this cycle. It shows how much money will stuck every day, in every floor accounts receivable, inventory or accounts payable (Shin and Sonen, 1998). The above discussion about the importance of working capital management, its constituent components, and its impact on profitability, which leads us to the problem we are trying to analyze it. The problem we are trying to analyze it, is of whether there is relationship between working capital management and Profitability of the listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange, and how is this related? 3.Importance and necessity of research Working capital management has been studied in many other countries during the years 1995 to Including, the research can be cited research (Lambrson, 1995), (Dylof, 2003), (Ghosh and Majy, 2003), (Filbak and Kruger, 2005), (R & nasr, 2007), (Nazir & afza, 2007) and (Samylog & dymrns, 2008). Working capital management is one of the sectors which plays a vital role in the management structure of an organization so that, in some cases, discussion of working capital and liquidity have been likened as the blood in the veins of a business unit to business unit is able to survive and management is mentioned in this section, the beating heart of the business, which is responsible for pumping blood into the arteries of duty. (Casy Van 2006) 4.Research goals Working capital management is important because it will affect the profitability, risk and subsequently the firm value. Therefore, managers need to know how to operate an efficient working capital management, to ensure growth, profitability and long term success of the company (Baker and Powell, 2005). Given the above, it should be examined whether the working capital management, will be associated with the efficiency and profitability of listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange and whether there is a relationship between different components of working capital management and profitability of listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange 5.The nature and importance of working capital The working capital satisfy short-term financing needs of business enterprise. The working capital is a trading capital of the company remains in a year. The money is invested in these items during business operation changes. The need to maintain adequate the working capital can hardly be questioned. As blood flow in the human body needs to maintain the life of a very important cash flow is essential for the continuity of business operations (Casey Van, 2006). The success of an economy unit depends on its ability to receive a cash is more than payment. Cash flow problems is difficulty many small businesses have due to poor financial management and lack of planning in particular needs cash (Jaro Visytal, 1996). 6.Various components of working capital 6.1.Cash Conversion Cycle Cash conversion cycle is one of the criteria for evaluation the working capital. Cash conversion cycle refers the time between the purchase of raw materials and collecting the proceeds from the sale of manufactured goods. 75
3 Whatever is the longer, more investment in the working capital is required. Longer cash conversion cycle might increase profitability through increased sales. However, if the cost of investing in the working capital is more than gains from investments in stock or granting trade credit, profitability may be reduced (Mark Dlaf, 2003). When using this criterion should be considered the following points: 1- To calculate the cash conversion cycle will be deducted delay in payment of accounts payable from the period of operation. So what is the period of delay in accounts payable is more cash conversion cycle is shortened and apparently the shorter the cash conversion cycle is represents better liquidity position while the delay in the payment of accounts payable can be proved inadequate cash position. The longer the delay, the situation is the worse, but this figure to calculate the cash conversion cycle to apply a different result is obtained. The longer delays lead to lower cash conversion cycle and represents an appropriate liquidity. Therefore, the probable inconsistency should be elevated in such a way. 2- In the cash conversion cycle measures does not pay attention cash balance the company. Therefore, in addition to the cash needed for optimal level surplus cash, companies should be considered. 3- The cash conversion cycle measures is merely considered debt collection period and the payment period and its value is ignored. If we consider two firms cash conversion period of two months but 90% of total accounts payable the first company is receivables and inventory and to second company ratio is 50% obviously, the first volume of the company's commitment are to their volume of current assets convertible to cash compared with the second company, which is less than, liquidity conditions are unsuitable indicator the cash conversion cycle is not reference to it (Khoram Nejad, 2007). 6.2.Net Trade Cycle The net trading cycle is alternative evaluating efficiency of working capital management. In many papers, working capital management assessment such as shin and sonen (1998), this measure is used. The decrease in net trade cycle, corporate profitability has increased. Thus, efforts to reduce the period of time is approved. Net trade cycle can say that a company is a year contains several operating cycles and the amount of total of these cycles have what amounts. This cycle shows that the amount per day and per category of accounts receivable, inventory or accounts payable to be assigns. When increases the number of days in accounts receivable or inventory, firms have reduced cash flow and reach cash balances. When reduced the number of days, companies increase cash flow and will be cash balance (Rahman et al., 2010). There are distinction between net trade cycle and cash conversion cycle. Cash conversion cycle, contains elements that are not the common denominator. In contrast, net trade cycle that are included components in the denominator of common components (net sales) is used, the components together is an expression of the percentage of sales. Net trade cycle, show the number of days to sell a company's to finance the working capital. This component is in fact an easy estimate for the amount of additional financing needs with respect to working capital expressed as a function of anticipated sales growth provides. Net trade cycle also is attentive to assess the company and create value for shareholders (Shin and sonen, 1998). 7.Profitability One of the important parameters is used always an important indicator of the companies in the analysis is profitability. Profit as a criterion and guide investment and decisions, one of the important tools to predict future earnings and trend of future profit, measure of management efficiency in corporate governance, evaluation criterion management monitoring of the company's assets and economic resources. Profitability refers to the company's ability to earn income over expenditure. Profitability the end result is all the programs and financial decisions and the last answer about how to manage the company, suggest to analysts. Usually, the variable profit to sales, return total assets, return on equity, used to measure profitability (Casey Van, 2006). 8.The impact of working capital management on profitability 76
4 Working capital management is an important area of financial management involves, and may have a significant impact on the liquidity and profitability of the firm (Shin & Sonen, 1998). According to Eduardo and Si (2002), as well as financial management decisions and plays a major role in the short-term corporate function. And efficient use of working capital has a significant impact on profitability and so the company's value. Cash conversion cycle is common tool measure of working capital management (Dylof, 2003). This cycle represents the average number of days between the time of receipt of funds of products sold to customers, and payment for the purchase of raw materials and labor (Baker and Powell, 2005). Decisions about investment in accounts receivable and inventories, and the amount of credit received from suppliers, the company is reflected in the cash conversion cycle (Troner & Solano, 2007). Through proper management of the cash conversion cycle of three components, namely, accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable, it will maximize the company's profitability and growth (Lazarydys and Trayfonydys, 2006). 9.Literature Setayesh et al. (2009) examined the effect of working capital management on the profitability of listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange. The results of this study indicate that between debt collection period inventory conversion period, the cash conversion cycle and financial leverage is negative relationship with profitability. In addition, sales growth has a significant positive relationship with profitability and accounts payable payment period is not significant effect on profitability. Ahmadi (2012), a paid research explores the relationship between working capital management and profitability of member companies of the food industry in Tehran Stock Exchange. This study was conducted for a period of 5 years between and examined the effect of different variables of working capital management including the average account balance of the collection cycle, cash conversion cycle and medium-term debt on the company's operating profit. The results showed an inverse relationship between the variables of working capital management and profitability. Shin and Sonen (1998), investigated the relationship between a measure of the cash conversion cycle and corporate profitability for a large sample of U.S. firms for the period They found a significant negative relationship between them, which suggests that managers can create value to this by reducing the cash conversion cycle to a reasonable minimum for shareholders. Nasr and Rahman (2007), investigated the impact of working capital management on profitability of 94 companies listed on the Stock Exchange during the period in Pakistan. He studied the effect of different variables of working capital including average debt collection period, inventory turnover period, average payment period and cash conversion cycle on net operating profit. And concluded that there is a strong negative relationship between the ratio of working capital and corporate profitability. In addition, managers can create value for their shareholders by reducing the cash conversion cycle to a optimum level. This study confirms the results of other studies on the relationship between working capital and profitability. Karadagly (2012), the paper focuses on the performance of the company, with a focus on working capital management because the measure is a measure of net trade cycle and the cash conversion cycle. For this study, the use of Turkish companies in the SME, in order to evaluate and measure the potential difference profitability effects of working capital management and whether net trade cycle can be converted into cash alternative to be assessed as a measure of working capital management. This research using pooled table, has done an analysis of annual data for the period The findings show that the increase in the cash conversion cycle and net trade cycle makes improvement in the operating profit of the company performance and increase the efficiency of the stock market for SMEs. However, for large firms, this result is obtained for the reduction of these two criteria. Furthermore, these findings indicate that net trade cycle managers can use the cash conversion cycle. 10.Research hypotheses 10.1.The main hypotheses There is a significant relationship between working capital management and profitability of listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange. 77
