The basic financial purpose of an enterprise is the maximization of its value. Trade credit management should also contribute to the realization of this fundamental aim. Many of the current asset management models that are found in financial management literature assume book profit maximization as the basic financial purpose. These book profit-based models could be lacking in what relates to another aim (i.e., maximization of enterprise value). The enterprise value maximization strategy is executed with a focus on risk and uncertainty. This article presents the consequences that can result from an operating risk that is related to purchasers using payment postponement for goods and/or services. The present article offers a method that uses portfolio management theory to determine the level of accounts receivable in a firm. An increase in the level of accounts receivables in a firm increases both net working capital and the costs of holding and managing accounts receivables. Both of these decrease the value of the firm, but a liberal policy in accounts receivable coupled with the portfolio management approach could increase the value. Efforts to assign ways to manage these risks were also undertaken; among them, special attention was paid to adapting assumptions from portfolio theory as well as gauging the potential effect on the firm value.

Zaliczki na dostawy i usługi oznaczają kwoty przekazane lub otrzymane od kontrahentów na poczet realizacji przyszłych dostaw zapasów rzeczowych aktywów obrotowych. Ich występowanie jest wyrazem stosowania zasad współmierności i ostrożności w ujawnianiu informacji o aktywach i pasywach bilansu, jak i związanych z nimi kosztów i przychodów w rachunku zysków i strat. Nieco odmienne jest regulowanie zaliczek handlowych w polskich i międzynarodowych standardach rachunkowości. Dla badacza tej problematyki od strony ujęcia w księgach rachunkowych ważna jest także wiedza dotycząca uregulowania zaliczek w prawie cywilnym, a zwłaszcza w prawie podatkowym. W artykule odniesiono się także do tych kwestii.

Advance payments for supplies and services mean the amounts transferred to or received from counterparties for the fulfillment of future deliveries of inventory within current assets. Their occurrence is an expression of the application of accrual basis of accounting and conservative valuation concept when disclosing information on assets and liabilities in a balance sheet, and associated expenses and revenues in an income statement as well. The paper sets out to discuss the issue of advance payments under the applicable law, furthermore, possibilities of posting entries in accounts of an entity. The main thesis of the article is based on the reasoning that the recognition of advance payments for supplies and services in accounts implies level of information credibility in reference to financial statements, especially regarding an amount of net profit or loss for a supplier.
