This study investigates an impact of working capital management (WCM) on profitability of industrial companies listed in Hochiminh Stock Exchange (HOSE). The author uses 352 observation samples from 44 industrial enterprises listed on HOSE over the 8-year period from 2010 to 2017. Return on Asset (ROA) and Tobin’s Q (TQ) are respectively selected as the dependent variables for book value and market value of profitability. The experimental results show that the Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC) and all components including the Account Receivables Turnover in Days (ARD), the Inventory Turnover in Days (INVD) and the Account Payables Turnover in Days (APD) have the negative effects on the ROA. In addition, the CCC, the ARD, and the APD have same effects on the TQ. |
