Impact of Working Capital Management on the firms profit and their liquidity position.

INTRODUCTION:

Working capital or circulating capital indicates circular flow of funds in the day-to-day or routine

activities of business. The most important reason why most people look at a balance sheet is to

find out a company's Working Capital (or "current") position.  It reveals more about the financial

condition of a business than almost any other calculation.  It tells us what would be left if a

company raised all of its short term resources, and used them to pay off its short term liabilities.  

The more working capital, the less financial strain a company experiences.  By studying a

company's position, one can clearly see if it has the resources necessary to expand internally or if it

will have to turn to a bank and take on debt.

CONCLUSION:

A firm must have adequate working capital, i.e., as much as needed the firm. It should be neither excessive nor inadequate. Both situations are dangerous. Excessive working capital means the firm has idle funds which earn no profits for the firm. Inadequate working capital means the firm does not have sufficient funds for running its operations.
