Abstract

Çalışma sermayesi yönetimi, üretim sanayi firmalarının performanslarının arttırılmasında önemli bir role sahiptir. Bu çalışmada, konfeksiyon sanayinin çalışma sermayesi yapısı, uygulanan çalışma sermayesi stratejileri ve çalışma sermayesinin karlılık üzerindeki etkisi analiz edilmiştir. Bunun için, TCMB tarafından yayınlanan, 1996-2011 dönem aralığına ait konfeksiyon sanayi finansal verileri, finansal oranlar, korelasyon ve regresyon analizleri yardımıyla incelenmiştir. Çalışmada, konfeksiyon işletmelerinin alacakların tahsil süresini ve nakit dönüşüm süresini kısaltarak, likidite ve karlılık arasında bir denge oluşturarak varlıklarını sürdürüp, karlılıklarını arttırabilecekleri sonucuna varılmıştır
