LOS d: Identify and evaluate the necessary tools to use in managing a company's net daily cash position.

 

An appropriate cash management strategy for a company that has a seasonally high need for cash prior to the holiday shopping season would least likely include:

A)
investing in U.S. Treasury notes at other times of the year because they are highly liquid.
B)
allowing short-term securities to mature without reinvestment.
C)
borrowing funds though a bank line of credit.



 

Treasury notes have maturities between 2 and 10 years and, thus, have maturities longer than those of securities suitable for cash management. Allowing short-term securities to mature without reinvesting the cash generated would be one way to meet seasonal cash needs. Short-term bank borrowing or issuing commercial paper that can be paid off when holiday sales generate cash would be appropriate strategies for dealing with a predictable short-term need for cash.

The least appropriate security for investing short-term excess cash balances would be:

A)
bank certificates of deposit.
B)
preferred stock.
C)
time deposits.



While adjustable-rate preferred is an appropriate security for short-term investment of excess cash balances, other preferred shares are not. Bank certificates of deposit and time deposits can be for appropriately short periods.
