Answer Posted / madhulika

A measure of both a company's efficiency and its short-term financial health. The working capital ratio is calculated as:

WORKING CAPITAL= CURRENT ASSETS-CURRENT LIABILITIES


Positive working capital means that the company is able to pay off its short-term liabilities. Negative working capital means that a company currently is unable to meet its short-term liabilities with its current assets (cash, accounts receivable and inventory).
