Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing.
Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle.

But what is this “Inventory”that you speak of?
![Page 12: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Inventory is composed of
»Raw materials»Goods in progress»Finished goods
![Page 13: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

The decision to hold inventory involves a trade-off .
![Page 14: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
If you decide to buy materials only as needed you incur higher costs.
Holding too little finished goods introduces the risk of losing a sale.
Not holding inventory introduces the risk of production delays.
![Page 15: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

On the other hand...
![Page 16: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Money tied up in inventory does not earn interest.
Storage and insurance must be paid for.
Inventory gets spoiled and deteriorates.
![Page 17: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

So how do we manage this Inventory thing?
![Page 18: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Consider this problem
A builder’s merchant faces a steady demand for engineering bricks.
When the merchant runs out of inventory, it replenishes the supply by placing an order for more bricks from the manufacturer.
What is the optimum level of inventory to keep?
![Page 19: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19
We now use the EOQ model to solve the problem.
![Page 20: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

EO What???
![Page 21: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Economic Order Quantity
A model that minimizes the total variable costs involved in ordering
and holding inventory.
![Page 22: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

To understand complex ideas, we often must break them down to their simplest parts, examining each, and later re-assembling them.
![Page 23: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
23
Thus the following assumptions...
» The demand for the item is known» The lead time is known and fixed» Inflation is negligible» The receipt of an order occurs in an instant» There are no quantity discounts» Shortages or stock-outs do not occur
![Page 24: Seminar on Financial Management · PDF file7 Shortening the cash conversion cycle is a good thing. Optimizing inventory levels can shorten the cash conversion cycle](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030423/5aab21107f8b9a8f498b8191/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

There are two costs associated with the merchant’s inventory of bricks:
» Order Cost» Handling expense
» Delivery charges
» Carrying Cost» Cost of space, insurance, and losses
» Opportunity cost of capital

But what about item cost?
