Common questions
What is working capital?
Current assets minus current liabilities: the money that keeps the business running day to day.
What is a good current ratio?
Often 1.2 to 2, depending on the business. Below 1 means short-term dues exceed short-term assets.
What is the cash conversion cycle?
Days of inventory + days to collect from customers − days to pay suppliers: how long cash is tied up.
How do I shorten it?
Collect faster, hold less stock, or agree longer terms with suppliers.
Which balances should I use?
Year-end or average balances, used consistently.
