Working capital, otherwise known as net working capital, is the difference between a company’s current assets and current liabilities.
The main components of working capital usually are:
• Cash
• Accounts receivable
• Inventory
• Accounts payable
Working capital also includes short-term investments, short-term borrowings, and other current assets and current liabilities. But cash, accounts receivable, inventory, and accounts payable are generally the most prominent accounts and thus a primary focus when it comes to working capital optimization.
