Economic theory introduces us to four different types of markets: perfect competition, monopolistic competition, oligopoly, and monopoly. Professional sports teams operate in an environment that is different than the typical business structure.

Britvic PLC’s financial statements recorded in 2009 a 20 days increase in the above mentioned ratio compared to the 2005-2008 average that had a value of 149 days. Therefore, Britvic PLC paid in 2009 its debts 169 days after the enclosure of the transactions.

However, this metric looks at the amount of time needed to sell inventory, the amount of time needed to collect receivables and the length of time the company is afforded to pay its bills without incurring penalties. In fact, most business acquires inventory on credit, which results in accounts payable. A business can also sell products on credit, which results in accounts receivable. However, cash is not involved until the business pays the accounts payable and collects the accounts receivable.

The cash conversion cycle cannot be observed directly in cash flows, which are affected by financing and investment activities as well; rather, the cycle refers to the time span between a firm's disbursing and collecting cash (Mueller, (2017)

Introduction: In the mid-1990s, Saatchi & Saatchi was on the brink of bankruptcy. The company had grown rapidly to that point, but this growth was stalled by recession in the early 1990s (Greenhalgh, 2004). The bankruptcy threat was the result of a balance sheet problem and stagnant revenues. Thus, Saatchi & Saatchi had operational problems that were beginning to compromise the firm's financial health. In response to these challenges, the management team set both operational and financial objectives in the course of implementing a balanced scorecard system. The company realized that 20-30% of its clients accounted for 70-80% of its revenue base. The financial goals revolved around the service of these clients, achieving the top market share, and setting objectives for revenue, profits and growth.

Through a business life cycle of assessing, planning, and acting the data from the assessment phase is key to the success of other two phases. As the business cycles between planning and acting the results of activity need to be analyzed and incorporated into the adjustment of plans. During the assessment phase business leaders place an emphasis on measured business performance analysis to inform the planning phase (or the highest level of planning, strategy development). The empirical data derived from objective assessments and statistics allow managers to report performance trends, planners to make recommendations based on projections, and leaders to make decisions supported by evidence. The first business product developed or refined as a result of this analysis is the business strategy. The business strategy guides management decisions on the utilization of resources and activities to ensure all business equities are working towards common objectives. During the assessments one of the most fundamental of performance measures is financial performance. To understand a business’ financial performance relative to other companies in the industry businesses can use a standard set of ratios; gross profit, quick, current, debt, collection period, receivable turnover, inventory turnover, net profit on sales, net profits to assets, and net profit to equity (Mariotti, 2011).
