Description
Este estudio evaluó la relación entre tercerización y el desempeño financiero de las empresas en Estados Unidos de Norte América (2000-2009). Con este fin, se calculó el efecto de tercerización en dos variables: la rentabilidad y la liquidez. En el primer caso se utilizó el margen operacional antes de interés e impuestos, el retorno sobre activos y el retorno sobre patrimonio; mientras que en el segundo caso, se empleó la razón rápida, la razón de deuda a total de activos y la razón de deuda a patrimonio neto. Se utilizaron los cambios porcentuales en los parámetros financieros en el año de anuncio de tercerización (t0) y el año subsiguiente (t1), los cuales resultaron no significativos (α = 0,05) para las empresas que tercerizan. También, no se encontró diferencias significativas (α = 0,05) en la rentabilidad y liquidez de las empresas con anuncios de tercerización y aquellas sin ellos.
This study evaluated the relation between outsourcing and firm's financial performance in the USA (2000-2009). To measure the effect of outsourcing on the company’s profitability, operating profit margin before interest and taxes, return on assets, and return on equity were used. To measure the effect of outsourcing on the company’s liquidity, quick ratio, total debt to total assets, and total debt to total equity were used. The study used the percentages of changes in financial parameters in the outsourcing year (t0) and subsequent year (t1), no indications of significance (α = 0.05) were found. Also, no significant (α = 0.05) results were found with respect to profitability and liquidity for companies with outsourcing announcements and those without announcements.
