Assumptions & method
- Working capital = Total current assets − Total current liabilities, using balance sheet figures at a single date.
- Current ratio = Total current assets ÷ Total current liabilities. It is shown as n/a when current liabilities are zero.
- This is a general accounting measure. It is not a cash-flow forecast and says nothing about the timing of receipts and payments.
- Cash conversion cycle (optional) = DSO + DIO − DPO, in days. Enter all three or leave all three blank. The values are used as entered and are not derived from the items above.
- Which items count as current depends on your accounting policies; use your own balance sheet categories.
Results are estimates based on the figures you enter. They are not guarantees and not accounting or financial advice.
What is working capital?
Working capital measures the short-term resources a business has after covering what it owes in the next twelve months. It is read straight from the balance sheet, so it describes one date, not future cash movement. That is why it can look healthy while cash is tight, for example when most current assets are stock that is slow to sell or invoices that are slow to be paid. The itemised inputs let you see which lines drive the result. The optional cash conversion cycle adds a time view: how many days money is tied up between buying stock, selling it and collecting payment, offset by the days you take to pay suppliers.
