In these years, an operations approach, an accounting approach, an economic approach, and a capital market approach, respectively, were prevalent. The paper shows that all of the approaches have their merits for today's working capital management (WCM) programs and discusses useful working capital program indicators, taking into account the cash conversion cycle (CCC) and its delineation into accounts receivables (A/R), inventory, and accounts payables (A/P) periods. This enables the author to take step ahead to the magic year 2020. Finally, the paper discusses briefly an academic development agenda.展开更多
