dc.description | This study addresses the problem of accounts payable management in Constructora Consocilor SA, located in Babahoyo, province of Los Ríos, during the period 2023. The company faces challenges related to payment prioritization, poor financial planning, and limited cash availability, which compromises its operational and financial stability. This context generates additional costs due to late interest and makes it difficult to take advantage of strategic opportunities. The research used a mixed approach integrating qualitative and quantitative methods. A non-experimental and cross-sectional design was applied, analyzing the financial statements using key indicators such as the debt ratio and the current liquidity ratio. Semi-structured interviews were also conducted with accounting staff to complement the interpretation of the data. Among the main findings, it was identified that accounts payable represent 79.7% of current liabilities, while free cash flow only covers 2% of these obligations, evidencing significant financial pressure in the short term. However, the solvency ratio (3.38) and low financial leverage (0.42) reflect a solid financial structure and low dependence on external financing. Despite this, high operating costs limit net profitability, which stands at 9.3%. In conclusion, it is necessary to implement strategies to optimize accounts payable management, improve cash flow and reduce operating costs. These actions are essential to ensure the financial sustainability and competitiveness of the company in a dynamic environment. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | El presente estudio aborda la problemática de la gestión de cuentas por pagar en la Constructora Consocilor SA ubicada en Babahoyo provincia de Los Ríos, durante el periodo 2023. La empresa enfrenta desafíos relacionados con la priorización de pagos una planificación financiera deficiente y una Limitada disponibilidad de efectivo lo que compromete su estabilidad operativa y financiera. Este contexto genera costos adicionales por intereses moratorios y dificulta el aprovechamiento de oportunidades estratégicas. La investigación utilizó un enfoque mixto integrando métodos cualitativos y cuantitativos. Se aplicó un diseño no experimental y transversal analizando los estados financieros mediante indicadores clave como el ratio de endeudamiento y el índice de liquidez corriente. También se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas con personal contable para complementar la interpretación de los datos. Entre los principales hallazgos se identificó que las cuentas por pagar representan el 79.7% del pasivo corriente, mientras que el flujo de caja disponible solo cubre el 2% de estas obligaciones evidenciando una presión financiera significativa a corto plazo. Sin embargo el índice de solvencia (3,38) y el bajo apalancamiento financiero (0,42) reflejan una estructura financiera sólida y baja dependencia de financiamiento externo. A pesar de ello los costos operativos elevados limitan la rentabilidad neta que se sitúa en el 9,3%. En conclusión, se requiere implementar estrategias para optimizar la gestión de cuentas por pagar mejorar el flujo de caja y reducir costos operativos. Estas acciones son esenciales para garantizar la sostenibilidad financiera y la competitividad de la empresa en un entorno dinámico. | es_ES |
