Indicative result
Working capital
AED 230,000.00
Current ratio
1.37 : 1
Position: positive. A ratio or balance alone does not show collection timing, inventory quality, overdue liabilities, seasonality or committed cash movements.
Formula and interpretation
Working capital = current assets − current liabilities.
Current ratio = current assets ÷ current liabilities.
Working capital is not available cash. Current assets can include receivables and inventory that are not immediately spendable, while current liabilities may fall due before those assets convert to cash.
Use this point-in-time result alongside an aged receivables review, inventory analysis, payment commitments and a dated cash-flow forecast. It is not assurance of liquidity or solvency.
Working-capital questions
What is working capital?
Working capital is current assets minus current liabilities. It is a point-in-time liquidity measure, not a cash-flow forecast.
What does a negative result mean?
Negative working capital means current liabilities exceed current assets at the date entered. The cause and timing should be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
What is the current ratio?
The current ratio is current assets divided by current liabilities. This calculator does not show a ratio when current liabilities are zero.
