Enterprise current assets management problems, however, need to take the corresponding management strategies and measures, in order to promote the healthy and orderly development of enterprises.Keywords: Enterprise management; Current assets management; Problems and strategies1 IntroductionEssential component of current assets is the enterprise assets, refers to the enterprise can be in one year or within an operating cycle longer than a year to liquidate assets or consumed, mainly can be divided into monetary capital and physical capital. Monetary fund mainly include cash, bank deposits, accounts receivable money, pending payment, etc. Physical capital refers to the stock, such as raw materials, semi-finished products, finished goods, etc. Due to its flow is relatively frequent, strong cash ability, current assets are basically with enterprise production process flow from the money form began to change its form in turn: part of the monetary fund as a reserve fund in storage, the other part as fixed capital investment, production into finished products, then change back into monetary form.As is known to all, the ratio of current assets to current liabilities, generally shows that the enterprise to repay the short-term ability strong and the weak, the greater the ratio, shows that the greater the liquidity of enterprise assets, enterprises have enough assets can be sold to repay the debt, in contrast ratio is smaller, the less liquidity, debt paying ability is weaker. But it is not the bigger the ratio, the better, if the enterprise current assets take up too much proportion, will affectthe operating efficiency of capital turnover and profitability.2 Enterprise current assets management problemsIn the process of enterprise investment, because of the lack of necessary, real market research and feasibility study, causing some products can not be marketable; Schedule of some investment projects due to a lack of strength, not put into production, the vast amounts of investment have become a huge burden, not only failed to establish a new economic growth point instead become a heavy burden of enterprises. At present, many enterprises was affected by these reasons of large, poor cash ability of non-performing assets of liquid assets, as well as invalid occupy and backlog, the serious influence the flow of the enterprise capital turnover, increased business costs, and greatly influenced the economic benefits of enterprises. If you want to take the long-term deposited heavy baggage, will weaken the solvency of the enterprise, form a vicious circle, even difficult to maintain normal production and operation. Specifically, the current corporate liquidity management exists some problems as follows:2.1 Repeat construction cause waste of resourcesBecause of the influence of the macro economy to enterprise, some enterprises in the current assets investment process due to the actual demand for liquid assets without careful planning, so will appear the phenomenon of blind investment, repeat construction. Blind investment caused lots of waste materials and reduces the return on equity.2.2 The financial fraud resulting in the loss of liquid assetsMany enterprise operators and financial personnel to the current minority performance and interest on the financial fraud, cause enterprise financial situation serious false, form a lot of hidden loss, make the enterprise have no staying power, facing bankruptcy; A large number of state-owned assets by private occupy, divert, erosion is serious; Some units, use their rights, head with public spending, causing huge loss of enterprise liquid assets.2.3 Daily management is not standardLack of effective management, some enterprise current assets can verify on schedule, without someone who's in charge, a take random phenomenon; Some units for the development of the third industry, placing surplus staff, transferring large amounts of money, equipment, long-term bill is not clear; Still exists the phenomenon of "zombie" companies, due to the non-standard operation in the business, not abide by the credibility, each other is not responsible for, payment ofa come-and-go funds for the enterprise long-term is not clear, which seriously affect the enterprise working capital turnover.2.4 The bad assets are widespreadWhen some of the economic resources can't provide the needed for the enterprise economic benefit, also lost its resources of economic value, can form the bad assets of the enterprise. Bad assets to the enterprise and national bring serious harm and economic loss is the important factors influencing the development and expansion. One is the bad assets in the accounts receivable is a common phenomenon existing in the present enterprise, some payment of accounts receivable long-term unmanned cleaning has been unable to recover, lose the practical significance of the creditor's rights; Second, some companies inventory backlog of lost sales in the value of the products, or because of blind procurement, or switch to cannot use of raw materials, elimination of equipment spare parts, etc., have already lost the value of the cash.3 The strategies and measures of enterprise liquid assets management3.1 Liquidity management strategyIn theory, if can correctly predict, enterprises should hold the exact amount of monetary funds, ready for the payment of necessary productive expenditure; Keep the exact number of inventory, in order to meet the needs of production and sales; Under the condition of the optimal credit investment in accounts receivable, and not as a short-term investment in securities. If we can achieve this goal, the total current assets can be in the lowest level, current assets structure is the most reasonable. As long as the total current assets more than or less than this level, the most reasonable structure of liquid assets will be damaged, corporate profits will drop. But in practice, because of the uncertainty of the future situation, the enterprise may not accurately predict liquid assets of project amount and the total amount of liquid assets, which must make different liquidity management strategy.Cautious strategy. Cautious type liquid assets management strategy refers to the current assets accounted for the proportion of total assets is higher, while maintaining the low level of current liabilities ratio, make the enterprise net working capital levels increase, cash ability improve, make the enterprise insolvency risk and risk of shortage of funds tend to be minimal. That is to say, this strategy not only requires enough total corporate liquidity abundant, the total amount of funds accounted for than major, but also the requirements of current assets and short-term monetary fundsecurities investment also wants to keep sufficient amount, account for larger proportion of the total amount of liquid assets. This strategy is the basic purpose of enterprise’s cash ability remains at a high level, and can be enough to meet all kinds of unexpected circumstances. Cautious type liquid assets management strategy is to reduce the advantages of the enterprise risk, but a disadvantage of low yield. Usually, it is only applicable to enterprise external environment is highly uncertain.Radical strategy. Radical policy requires low current assets accounted for the proportion of total assets, at the same time improve the proportion of current liabilities financing make smaller or even negative net working capital, make the enterprise funds shortage risk and solvency risk tend to be the biggest. This strategy is the basic purpose of trying to cut the liquidity that takes money to improve the yield of enterprises. Enterprises to adopt this kind of radical liquidity management strategy, while it is possible to increase the income of the enterprise, but also increased the risk of the enterprise. So, radical liquidity management strategy is a big risk, high yield management strategy. In general, it is only applicable to enterprise external environment is quite uncertain.3, medium type strategy. Moderate type strategy can be divided into two kinds: one kind is current assets total assets ratio is higher, and maintain a higher level of current liabilities; Another kind is the proportion of current assets to current liabilities of all assets fall at the same time, the proportion of investment in fixed assets and long-term financing proportion increase at the same time, make the enterprise risk center. Because of the risks and benefits is dialectical, although high risk can bring higher yields, but companies must master a degree, so, most companies usually choose between caution and aggressive type of moderate management strategy.3.2 Liquidity management measures3.2.1 Daily cash management measuresPeriodically prepare the cash budget, cash receipts and cash disbursements reasonably, timely reflect cash we situation, is the important content of cash management. The cash budget establishment has a leading role in the cash management, the whole of the enterprise financial management has essential meaning, is the direction of the enterprise cash management. In cash management, is the top priority for the establishment of management measures.(1) the payment as soon as possible. Company payment as soon as possible is not only to expire the accounts receivable to recover as soon as possible, but also these receivables into cash available as soon aspossible. The crux of the cash management is the recovery time. How to shorten the collection time, accelerate the capital turnover is to solve the main problem of cash management. Enterprise to science using the method of "lock box", "focus on banking law", "discounts and receivable hook" to speed up recovery companies such as payment methods, improve the ability of cash management, improve the economic benefits of enterprises.(2) control spending. The crux of the cash management is spending time. In the opposite direction, to stand in the Angle of the payer, the enterprise, of course, the longer spending cash, the better, but the premise is not damage enterprise reputation, increase the "cost" with each other. Therefore, the enterprise cash management focus should be on how to scientifically delay payment on time. The specific methods used are "delayed payment of accounts payable by draft" payment ", "payment by installments" and "outsourcing processing and reduce the curing", etc. In addition, cash is the most liquid assets in the enterprise assets; the security is the top priority of cash management. Although in the past cash security has many effective measures and systems, but there are many management loopholes, as long as there is a little slack, the enterprise will pay a heavy price, teach is more similar. Therefore, enterprises must ensure the safety of the cash one hundred percent.3.2.2 Daily management of receivablesInvestment is the necessity of competition in the market for enterprise receivables, but the risk of accounts receivable is everywhere, we don't have. To strengthen the accounting and management of accounts receivable, in relation to the capital turnover of the enterprise, affect the enterprise's survival. Therefore, the enterprise should stick to it as a long-term and institutionalized work to grasp, strive for the various measures put in place.(1) to strengthen customer credit management, credit policy. Establish special credit management department, credit investigation and analysis, a reasonable credit policy, etc., it is very important to strengthen the management of accounts receivable in the first. Because of the credit policy is the enterprise to accounts receivable for the planning and control of basic strategy and measures. Must be according to their actual management and customer credit conditions for a reasonable credit policy. Reasonable credit policy should be credit standards, credit and collection policy during the period of the three combination, considering the change of the influence of various cost of sales, accounts receivable.(2) the careful analysis of the accounts receivable aging. In general, the longer the customer overdue payments, payment collection difficulty, the greater the chance that a loss ofbecome non-performing loans will be high. Enterprises have to do accounts receivable aging analysis, pay close attention to accounts receivable recovery progress and change. Through the analysis of the aging of accounts receivable, the enterprise financial management department can take the accounts receivable inventory, incremental, and become the information such as the possibility of bad debts. If the aging of accounts receivable aging analysis showed that enterprise has started to extend or proportion of overdue accounts increase gradually, then must take timely measures to adjust the enterprise credit policy, efforts to improve the efficiency of accounts receivable collection. From accounts receivable not expire, also can't loosen supervision, to prevent the new default.(3) establish a responsibility system for the collection of receivables. The responsibility of the enterprise shall implement the internal overdue receivables, accounts receivable and recycle and internal performance evaluation and rewards and punishment from various business units. For the overdue accounts receivable of the business department and related personnel, enterprise should be in inside in the proper way to give warning, accept the supervision of the staff.译文企业流动资产管理研究Alalwan J A.摘要流动资产管理主要包括现金、各种存款、短期投资、应收及预付账款、存货等的管理。
