Abstract
The final topic in a series looking at financial management from a theoretical perspective, working capital management provides the focus of the current article. We investigate how three key axioms — the risk-return tradeoff, agency conflicts, and stockholder wealth maximization — relate to this activity that occupies much of the financial manager’s time.
