Best Practices for Days Payable Outstanding [Video]

A higher DPO is usually a good thing. By waiting longer to pay its suppliers, a company can put the cash to alternative uses and require less capital to finance inventory. But sometimes a lower DPO is better. By paying suppliers early, a company can get discounts and avoid late fees. The company will also maintain good relationships with suppliers and not be subject to credit restrictions and harsh payment terms. Thus, a company’s goal should be to optimize DPO as a high (or low) DPO isn’t always better. A company can optimize its DPO with:• Better A/P processes• Better recordkeeping• Better payment terms• Better payment timing This video discusses these 4 ways to optimize DPO in more detail.— Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, an award-winning professor who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.

3 Theories Explaining the Shape of the Yield Curve [Video]

There are three theories to explain the shape of the yield curve. Expectation theory says the long-term yield of a financial instrument is the average of the short-term yields that are expected to occur over the life of the instrument. Thus: • An upward yield curve means investors expect short-term yields to rise in the future • A downward yield curve means investors expect short-term yields to decline in the futureThe yield curve, therefore, changes as investors’ expectations about future short-term yields change. This explains why yields with different maturities tend to move together. Market segmentation theory says that yields for different terms are based on supply and demand. In short, some investors have a preference for financial instruments with a certain maturity, and these preferences determine yields. The downside of market segmentation theory is that it fails to explain why yields with different maturities tend to move together.Liquidity premium theory is a combination of expectations theory and market segmentation theory. According to this theory, the long-term yield is the average of short-term yields throughout the life of the bond plus a liquidity premium that represents the supply and demand for bonds at that term.— Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, an award-winning professor who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.
