| Tiivistelmä: | The authors offer a framework to help identify and manage the level of growth that a company's cash flow can support. They present a formula to calculate an organization's self- financeable growth (SFG) rate, taking into account three critical factors: a company's operating cash cycle - the amount of time the company's money is tied up in inventory and other current assets before customers pay for goods and services; the amount of cash needed to finance each dollar of sales; and the amount of cash generated by each dollar of sales. The authors offer a detailed hypothetical example that carefully considers these three factors; they then illustrate how a company can influence its SFG rate by carefully managing some combination of those factors - that is, some mix of speeding cash flow, reducing costs, and raising prices. |
