Abstract

The prime objective of current study is to investigate the impact of working capital management tools such as cash conversion cycle, inventory management, and receivable management on the performance of supply chain of manufacturing firms operating in Indonesia. In addition to that, the current study is also interested in examining the moderating role of corporate cash holdings in the relationship between cash conversion cycle and firm supply performance, inventory management and firm supply performance, and receivable management and firm supply performance. To achieve the objective of the current study, we have employed the structural equation modeling and used the statistical package of smart PLS-3. The data by mean of an adapted survey instrument in the form of questionnaire is collected from the operation and finance managers of Indonesian manufacturing firms.
