description This thesis studies the effect of working capital management and its components toward the profitability of Indonesian manufacturing companies. Cash Conversion Cycle is used as a comprehensive measure for working capital management and Return on Asset used as a measure for profitability. Furthermore there are control variables such as firm size and growth. This study is based on a sample of 133 manufacturing companies listed in Indonesia Stock Exchanges for a period of 3 years: 2009 - 2011. The results of multiple regression analysis found that there is no significant effect of working capital management on profitability. This implies that firms which wait longer to pay their payables to supplier and which grant a longer credit period to their customers not necessarily to generate more profit. While, the firm size does have positive and significant effect on profitability. This indicates that bigger firms tend to have higher profitability. Finally, there is positive and significant effect of growth on profitability which indicates firms which have higher growth that could be means have higher employee motivation and performance and also higher attractiveness for business partners have higher profitability.
