Abstract
The basic financial purpose of an enterprise is maximization of its value. Operating cycle management should also contribute to realization of this fundamental aim. Many of the current asset management models that are found in financial management literature assume book profit maximization as the basic financial purpose. These book profit-based models could be lacking in what relates to another aim (i.e., maximization of enterprise value). The enterprise value maximization strategy is executed with a focus on risk and uncertainty. This article presents the consequences for the firm that can result from operating risk that is related to unsuitable target operating cycle.
