7orking Capital is the re:uired for maintenance of day to day ,usiness
operations. The present day competiti(e market en(ironment calls for an
efficient management of working capital. The reason for this is attri,uted to
the fact that an ineffecti(e working capital management mat force the form to
stop its ,usiness operations' may e(en lead to ,ankruptcy. +ence the goal of
working capital management is not just concerned with the management of
current assets and current lia,ilities ,ut also in maintaining a satisfactory le(el
of working capital.
+olding current assets in su,stantial amount strengthens the li:uidity position
and reduces the riskiness ,ut only at the e)pense of profita,ility. Therefore
achie(ing risk;return tradeoff is significant in holding of current assets. 7hile
cash outflows are predicta,le it runs contrary in case of case of cash inflows.

In most ,usiness' funds are deployed in assets which are in the form of
cash or ,ank deposits or will ,e turned into cash in a relati(ely short
period as part of normal ,usiness acti(ities. In short the working capital
is the sources of financing current assets and it includes short as well as
long term financing.
The management of the funds of ,usiness can ,e descri,ed as financial
management. #inancial management is mainly concerned with two
aspects. #irstly' #i)ed assets and fi)ed lia,ilities' in other words' long
term in(estment and sources of funds. Secondly' current assets and
current lia,ilities. Both of these types of funds play a (ital role in
,usiness finance.
Management of working capital usually in(ol(es management or
administration of current assets' namely cash' marketa,le securities'
account recei(a,les and in(entories and also the administration of
current lia,ilities such as creditors' account paya,le' notes and ,ills
paya,les' ,ank o(erdraft' outstanding e)penses' temporary loans and
pro(isions. A firm should always maintain the right cash ,alance so
that flow of funds is maintained at a desira,le speed not allowing
slowdowns or stoppage. Thus' the enterprises can ha(e a ,alance
,etween li:uidity and profita,ility.
The term working capital is often used to refer the firm>s current assets
like primarily cash' marketa,le securities' account recei(a,les and
in(entories. 7orking capital refers to the fact that most of its
components ha(e their impact o(er weeks and month rather than years.
#or this reason' working capital management is often referred to as
short;term finance. The term working capital is closely related to the
term funds and has two common meaning. It is used to mean current
assets of current assets means current lia,ilities.
7orking capital management is concerned with the pro,lems that arise
in attempting to manage the current assets. The term current assets
12
-

20/57
refers to those assets which is ordinary course of ,usiness can ,e or
will ,e turned into cash within one year without undergoing a
diminution in (alue and with our disrupting the operations of the firm.
The major current assets are cash' marketa,le securities' account
recei(a,les and in(entory.
Current lia,ilities are those lia,ilities' which are intended at their
inception to ,e paid in the ordinary course of ,usiness within a year'
out of the current assets of earnings of the concern. The ,asis current
lia,ilities are accounts paya,le' ,ank o(erdraft and outstanding
e)penses. The goal of working capital management is to management
the firm>s current assets and current lia,ilities in such a way that a
satisfactory le(el of working capital is maintained.
This is so ,ecause if the firm cannot maintainto satisfactory le(el of
working capital' it is likely to ,ecome insol(ent and may ,e forced into
,ankruptcy. The current assets should ,e large enough to co(er its
current lia,ilities in order to ensure a reasona,le margin of safety. $ach
of the current assets must manage efficiently in order to maintain the
li:uidity of the firm while not keeping too high le(el of any of them.
$ach of the short;team sources of financing must ,e continuously
managed to ensure that they are a,stained and used in the ,est possi,le
way. The interaction ,etween current assets and current lia,ilities is'
therefore' the main theme of the theory of working capital
management.
7orking capital may ,e defined more particularly as the assets held for
current use within a ,usiness less the amount due to those who await
settlement in short term in whate(er form. 7orking capital is an
important aspect manufacturing compares that ha(e so far de(eloped
country. Among all a(aila,le options proper management of working
capital is the only ,est possi,le option to impro(e their operational
(ia,ility. 7orking capital is the financial management practice in
manufacturing enterprises. 7orking capital represents portion that

circulates from one form to another in the ordinary conduct of ,usiness.
This idea em,races recurring transaction from cash to in(entories to
recei(a,le to cash that forms the con(entional chain of ,usiness
operations.
#und deployed for short term are mainly for working capital or
operational purpose. Towards the day;to;day operation' a firm will
ha(e to pro(ide money towards the purchase of raw materials' payment
of wage and salaries to e)tend credit to ,uyers of goods as well as to
meet other day to day operations.

CONCEPTS OF WORKING CAPITAL
There are two concepts of working capital4; gross - net. 8ross
working capital' simply called working capital' refers to the firm>sin(estment in current assets. Current assets are the assets which can ,e
con(erted into cash within an accounting period /or operating
cycle1and cash' short;term securities' recei(a,les' de,tors and stock
/in(entory1 are included in current assets. !et working capital refers to
the difference ,etween current assets and current lia,ilities. Current
lia,ilities are those claims of outsiders' which are e)pected to mature
for payment within an accounting periodand include creditors' ,ills
paya,leand outstanding e)penses.
1) G*4++ 4*@1-2 3&917&
According to this concept' total current assets are working capital
which presents ,oth owned capital as well as loan capital used for
financing current assets. It includes cash' short;term securities and
recei(a,les in(entories. These assets can ,e con(erted into cash within
a year. 8enerally' when it comes to current assets' cash is the most
(alua,le element ,ecause it is immediately a(aila,le to settle ,ills and
de,tors are more (alue than stock which is nearer to ,eing turned into
cash. The gross concept of working capital refers to the amount funds
in(ested in short;term assets that are employed in the enterprise. 8ross
working capital is the firm>s total current asset and net working capital
is current assets minus current lia,ilities.

Another name of gross working capital is circulating capital.
Circulating capital means circular flow of cash. This is also called
operating cycle in case of manufacturing firm. This cycle starts with
which is used to pay for raw materials. &aw materials are con(erted
into work;in progress which is again con(erted into finished goods.
7hen it is ready for sale' it is a circular cash;flow from cash into
in(entories to recei(a,les and ,ack to cash' this cycle will ,e repeat
again for the whole life of the firm.
The (alue represented ,y current assets circulates from one working
capital to another working capital from purchase accounts to goods
manufacturing accounts. #rom in(entory accounts to sales accounts'
from sales accounts to cash accounts' this is descri,ed as circulating
nature of current assets of in other work working capital has circulating
nature. The speed of circulating of working capital of the turno(er of
current assets is an indicator of degree of efficiency of the
management. The faster the turno(er shows the higher degree of
efficiency.

If the ,usiness is profita,le the firm>s assets at the end of each cycle will ,e
greater than the original in(estment. In this manner' each cycle will
produce a gross profit' and the amount of net earnings for the year will
depend. In part' on num,er of times the cycle occurs or how measured
,y the ratio of sales to current assets. The higher the ratio' the more
efficiency the operations' fewer current assets are needed to support
each dollar of sales.
The flow of working capital does not always proceeds as it is pre;
planned when it mo(es through different stage of cash cycle' for
e)ample' sales may decline due to can in consumer taste' slow
economy and recei(a,le ,ecome more difficult to collect the working
capital cycle will ,e interrupted. This leads to decline in profita,ility
and firm could suffer ,ankruptcy if this ad(erse situation pre(ails for

The gross capital working capital focuses on two aspects of
current assets management4
a1 3ptimum in(estment in current assets4 As state earlier' ,oth
e)cessi(e and inade:uate in(estment is harmful for the
,usiness. This aspectsthus' emphasis on the optimum ade:uate
le(el of current assets' working capital depends upon the
,usiness acti(ated. It also changes with the change in ,usiness
acti(ities. This may cause e)cess or shortage of working capital
fre:uently. The management should ,e acti(e and alert to
correct the im,alance.
,1 #inancing of current assets4 This aspect focus on the need of
arranging funds to finance current assets when more working
capital is re:uired due to the increase in ,usiness acti(ities.
Then the arrangement should ,e made :uickly. Similarly' when
surplus funds arise' then they should ,e in(ested in short term
securities.

o(er total current lia,ilities. It is a :ualitati(e concept which shows
the financial soundness of current financial position. !et working
capital may ,e positi(e or negati(e according to the sis current assets financed with long term funds.
#or e(ery firm today' minimum portion of working capital is
financed with the permanent sources of funds such as owners>capital' de,entures' long;term de,t' and preference capital or
retained earningsP this portion of working capital which is financed
with long term funds is called permanent working capital.
Management must therefore' decide the e)tent to which current
assets should ,e financed with e:uity capital orE and ,orrowed
capital.

Both the concepts of working capital' gross and net' are not
mutually e)clusi(e' howe(er. They are e:ually important from the
management point of (iew in the gross concept points out two
important aspects of current assets4 /i1 3ptimum in(estment in each
of the component of current assets and /ii1#inancing of these
current assetsP while the net concept indicates /i1 The li:uidity
position and /ii1 The e)tent to which working capital may ,e
financed ,y permanent sources of funds. Both the concepts ha(e
their own ad(antages and disad(antages' which concept to choose
depend upon the purpose of the firm. The concept of gross capital is
a financial concept where as that of net concept is an accounting
concept. Management is interested in current assets to operate the
,usiness with efficiency. To e(aluate the efficiency' gross concept is
appropriate. 3n the other hand interest of in(estors and lenders is in
concept of net working capital ,ecause it helps in the judgment if
li:uidity position of the enterprise.

In general' working capital needs also depend upon the means of

There are no hard and fast rules or certain formulae to determine the
working capital re:uirement of the firm. The importance of efficient
working capital management is an aspect of o(erall financial
management. Thus a firm plans its operations with ade:uate working
capital re:uirement or it should ha(e neither too e)cess nor too
inade:uate working capital. A num,er of factors affect the working
capital. 8enerally' the following factors affect the working capital
re:uirement of the firm.

7orking capital re:uirement is also determined ,y its production
policy. If a firm produces seasonal foods' the its production and sales
(olume fluctuate with different seasons. This type of fluctuating policy
affects the working capital policy of the firm.
i(1 Credit *olicy4
Credit policy affects the working capital of a firm. 7orking capital
re:uirement depends on terms of sales. ifferent term may ,e followed
,y different customers according to their credit worthiness. If the firm
follows the li,eral credit policy' then it re:uires more working capital.
Con(ersely' if a firm follows the stringent policy' it re:uires less
working capital.
(1 A(aila,ility of Credit4
A(aila,ility of credit facility is another factor that affects the working
capital re:uirement. If the creditors a(ail a li,eral credit terms then the
firm will need less working capital and (ice;(ersa. In other works' the
firm can get credit facility easily on fa(ora,le conditions. Thus' it
re:uires less working capital to run the firm otherwise more working
capital is re:uired to operate the firm smoothly.
(i1 8rowth and $)pansion4
8rowth and e)pansion also affects the working capital re:uirement of
firm. +owe(er' it is difficult to preciseP determine the relationship
,etween the growth and e)pansion of the firm and working capital

Two approaches are generally followed for the management of working
capital4 /i1 the con(entional approach' and /ii1 the operating cycle
approach.
T0) C4-')-714-& A99*4&30
This approach implies managing the indi(idual components of working
capital /i.e. in(entory' recei(a,les' paya,les' etc.1 efficiently and
economically so that there are neither idle funds nor paucity of funds.
Techni:ues ha(e ,een e(ol(ed for the management of each of these
components. In India' more emphasis is gi(en to the management of
de,tors ,ecause they generally constitute the largest share of the
in(estment in working capital. 3n the other hand' in(entory control has
not yet ,een practised on a wide scale perhaps due to scarcity of goods
/or commodities1 and e(er rising prices.
T0) O9)*&71-2 C;3) A99*4&30
This approach (iews working capital as a function of the (olume of
operating e)penses. %nder this approach the working capital is
determined ,y the duration of the operating cycle and the operating
e)penses needed for completing the cycle. The duration of the
operating cycle is the num,er of day in(ol(ed in the (arious stages'

ADEQUACY OF WORKING CAPITAL
