why doesn’t profit= cash
Profit includes all revenues earned and expenses incurred during a period, regardless of whether cash has been received or paid. Cash flow only includes actual cash transactions. Therefore, profit does not equal cash.
inventory turnover rate
A faster turnover means inventory is selling quickly, which is generally positive for liquidity and efficiency.
accounts receivable turnover rate
A lower number of days means faster collection and stronger liquidity
accounts payable turnover rate
A slower rate can help maintain cash but must be balanced to avoid harming supplier relationships.
cash cycle
A shorter cash cycle means quicker conversion of stock into cash and stronger liquidity.
