Accounts receivable that is not returned in a timely manner depreciates assets, reducing their value in the face of inflation, and an uncontrolled increase in accounts payable creates the risk of claims from creditors for the bankruptcy of organizations. In addition, non-payment by debtors of the amount of debt on time can lead to untimely fulfillment of the organization's obligations to creditors, tax authorities, etc., which will necessitate the attraction of new credit and borrowed funds and, as a result, an increase in cost due to the payment of interest, a decrease in financial result.
