STATEMENT OF THE PROBLAM
In order to maintain flows operations every firm needs certain amount of
current assets. For example cash is required to pay for expenses or to meet obligations
for services received or goods purchased etc, by a firm. On the identical plane
inventories are required to provide the link between production and sale. Similarly
accounts receivable generate when goods are sold on credit.
eedless to mention cash, bank, debtors, bills receivables closing stock !including raw materials, work in process, finished goods", prepayments and certain other
deposits and investments which are temporary in nature present current assets of a firm.
#conomists like $ead, $allet, %acker and Field are of the opinion that the
whole of these current assets forms the working capital of a firm. &nd this concept of
working capital of a firm is frequently termed as gross working capital, in the area of
financial management.

INTRODUCTION
'he total capital employed in a business organi(ation can be categori(ed as fixed
capital and working capital. 'he fixed capital that part of the funds, which is invested in
current assets.
'he investment in fixed assets is represented by land and buildings !for factory,
office go down and stores", equipment such as machinery, furniture and fixtures,
intangible assets in the form of patents and goodwill etc. 'o employ these fixed assets
gainfully current assets are required. )urrent assets consists of raw materials, working
progress, finished goods, stores and spares accounts, receivables, and cash in hand and at
bank and marketable securities.
Balanced working cai!al o"i!ion#
'he firm should maintain a sound working capital position. It should have
adequate working capital to run its business operations. %oth excessive as well as
inadequate working capital positions are dangerous from the firm*s point of view.
#xcessive working capital means idle funds, which earn no profits for the firm. +aucity
of working capital not only impairs the firm*s profitability but also results in production
interruptions and inefficiencies.
$OR%IN& CAPITAL MANA&EMENT
orking capital management forms the inching of every business. &s
-ilberth arold puts the problems. /nfortunately, there is so much disagreement among
financiers, accountants, business men and economists as to the exact meaning of the term
orking )apital.

De'ini!ion o' $orking Cai!al#
orking )apital or )irculating )apital indicates circular flow of funds in the
routine activities of business.
orking )apital can be defined as 0&ny acquisition of funds which increases the
current assets, increases working capital also, for they are one and the same1
Bonne(ille)
'he current assets are cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable and
inventory.
'he current liabilities are those liabilities which are intended at their inceptionto be paid in the ordinary course of business such as bills payable, bank overdraft and
outstanding expenses.
'he goal of working capital management to manage the firms* current assets
and current liabilities in such a way that a satisfactory level of working capital is
maintained. 'his is because if the firm cannot maintain a satisfactory level of working
capital, it is likely to become insolvent and may even be forced into bankruptcy.
IMPORTANTCE OF $OR%IN& CAPITAL
'he source of any enterprise depends on the proper management of working
capital aims at protecting the purchasing power of assets and maximi(ing the return on
investments, sales expansion, dividend declaration, plant expansion, increased salaries
and wages, rising price level etc., but added strain on working capital maintenance.
CONCEPTS OF $OR%IN& CAPITAL
'here are two concepts of orking )apital

&ro"" $orking Cai!al#
It refers to the company*s investments in )urrent assets. )urrent &ssets are the
assets which can be converted into cash within an accounting year and include cash,
short2term securities, debtors, bills receivables and stock.
Ne! $orking Cai!al#
It refers to the difference between current assets and current liabilities. )urrent
3iabilities are those claims of outsiders, which are expected to mature for payment within
an accounting year and include creditors, bills payable, and outstanding expenses. etworking )apital can be positive or negative.
& positive net working capital will arise when current liabilities are in excess
of current liabilities. & negative net working capital occurs when current liabilities are in
excess of current assets.
'he two concepts of working capital 4 gross and networking capital are not
exclusive, rather they have equal significance from management view point, the gross
working capital concept focuses attention on two aspects of current assets management.
Optimum investment current assets and Financing of current assets.
et working capital being the difference between current assets and current
liabilities. It is a qualitative concept. It aims at the firms* liquidity position and financing
of current assets suggests the extent to which working capital needs may be financed by
permanent sources of funds.
'he consideration of the level of investment in current assets should avoid two
danger points.
)urrent assets have excessive and inadequate investments. Investment in
current assets should be 5ust adequate, not more not less to the needs of the business firm.
#xcessive investment in current assets should be avoided because it impairs the firm*s
profitability an ideal investments nothing. On the other hand inadequate amount of

working capital can threaten solvency of the firm because of its inability to meet its
current obligations.
CHARACTERISTICS OF CURRENT ASSETS
In the management of working capital two characteristics of current assets
must borne in mind.
Short2term span
Swiftly transformation into other assets form )urrent assets has a short life span.
&ccounts receivable may have a life span of 67 to 87 days, inventories may be held for 67
days to 977 days and cash may be held idle for week or two.
#ach current asset is swiftly transformed into other assets form. )ash is used
for acquiring raw materials.
:aw materials are untransformed into finished goods !this transformation may
involve several stages of work in progress", finished goods, generally sold on credit, are
converted into accounts receivable and finally, accounts receivables, on reali(ation
generates cash.
'he need for current assets arises because of the operating cycle. 'he
operating cycle is a continuous process and therefore, the need for current assets is felt
constantly. %ut the magnitude of current assets needed in not always the same, it increases
and decreases over time.
owever, there is always a minimum level of current assets which time is
continuously required by the firm to carry on its business operations.
'his minimum level of current assets is referred to as permanent or fixed
working capital. ;epending upon the changes in production and sales, the need for
working capital, over and above permanent working capital will fluctuate.
'he extra working capital needed to support the changing production and sales
an activity is called fluctuating or variable or temporary working capital.

DETERMINANTS OF $OR%IN& CAPITAL
'here are no set rules to determine the working capital requirements of firms.& large number of factors, each having a different importance, influence working capital
needs of firms. 'herefore, an analysis of relevant factors should be made in order to
determine total investment in working capital. 'he following is the description of factors,
which generally influence the working capital requirements of firms.
NATURE AND SI*E OF BUSINESS#
'he si(e of business also has an important impact on its working capital needs.
Si(e may be measured in terms of the scale of operations. & firm with large scale of
operations will need working capital than small term. 'he working capital requirements
of a firm are basically influenced by the nature of business trading and financial firm has
a very less investment in fixed assets, but require a large sum of money to be invested in
working capital.
TECHNOLO&+ AND MANUFACTURIN& POLIC+
'he manufacturing cycle starts with the purchase and use of raw materials and
completes with the production of finished goods. 3onger the manufacturing cycle, larger
will be the firms working capital requirements. &n extended manufacturing time span
means a larger tie2up of funds in inventories. 'hus if there are alternative technologies of
manufacturing a product, the technological process with the shortest manufacturing cycle
may be chooses.
FIRMS CREDIT POLIC+
7

8/18/2019 wcm @ bevcon PVT LTD.,.doc
8/65
'he credit policy of the firm affects the working capital by influencing the
level of debtors. 'he credit term to be granted to customers may depend upon the forms
of the industry to which the firm belongs.
A,AILABILIT+ OF CREDIT
)reditors also affect the working capital requirements of a firm. & firm will
need less working capital if liberal credit terms are available to it.
OPERATIN& EFFICIENC+
'he operating efficiency of the firm relates to the optimum utili(ation of
resources at minimum costs. 'he firm will be effectively contributing in keeping the
working capital investment at a lower level if it is efficient to controlling operating costs
and utili(ing current assets. 'he use of working capital is improved and pace of a cash
conversion cycle is accelerated with operating efficiency.
BUSINESS FLUCTUATIONS
$ost firms experience seasonal and cyclical fluctuations in the demand for
their products and services. 'his business variation effects the working capital
requirements especially the temporary working capital requirement of the firm. hen
these is an upward swing in the economy, sales will increase and vice2versa.
PRODUCTION POLIC+
& steady production policy will cause inventories to accumulate during the
off2season periods and the firm will be exposed to greater inventory cost and risk. 'hus, if
the cost and risks of maintaining a constant production schedules are high, the firm may
adopt the policy of varying its production schedules in accordance with the change in
demand.

'he working capital needs of firm increases it growth in terms of sales of fixed
assets. If is difficult to precisely determine the relationship between volume of sales and
the working capital needs. 'he critical fact however is that the need for increased working
capital funds does not follow growth in business activities but precedes it.
PROFIT MAR&IN AND PROFIT APPROPRIATION
Firms differ in their capacity to generate profit from business operations.
Some firms en5oy a dominant position, due to quality product or good marketing
management or monopoly power in the market and earn a high profit margin. Some other
firms may have to operate in an environment of intense competition and may earn low
margin of profits. & high net profit margin contributes towards the working capital pool.
In fact the net profit is a source of working capital to the extent it has earned in cash.
DIMIENSIONS OF $OR%IN& CAPITAL MANA&EMENT
orking )apital $anagement refers to the administration of all aspects of current
assets namely cash, marketable securities, and debtors and are many aspects of working
capital management, which makes it an important function of the financial manager.
#mpirical observations show that the financial managers have to spend much
of their time to the daily internal operations, relating to the current assets and currentliabilities of the firms. Investments in current assets represents a very significant portion
of the total investment in assets. It is particularly very important for small firms to
manage their current liabilities in financing current assets is far significant incase of small
firms, as unlike large firms, the difficulties in raising long terms finances.

'here is a direct relationship between sale and working capital needs. &s sales
grow, the firm needs to invest more in inventories and book debts. 'hese needs become
very frequent and fast when sales grow continuously.
It may thus be concluded that all precautions should be taken for the effective
and efficient management of working capital. 'o decide the levels and financing of
current assets, the risk return implications must be evaluated.
FINANCIN& CURRENT ASSETS
'he firm must find out the sources of funds to finance its current assets. It can
adopt different financing policies. 'hree types of financing be distinguished as follows.
3ong term financing
Short term financing
Spontaneous financing
'he important sources of long2term financing are shares, debentures, preference
shares, retained earnings and debt from financial institutions.
Short term financing refers to those sources of short credit that the firm must
arranged in advance. 'hese sources include short term bank loans, commercial papers and
factoring receivable.
Spontaneous financing refers to the automatic sources of short term funds. 'he
ma5or sources of such financing are trade credit !creditors and bill payable" and
outstanding expenses. Spontaneous sources of finance are cost free.

TECHNI.UES FOR THE MANA&EMENT OF $OR%IN& CAPITAL
In this section a few important techniques of working capital are presented. &ll
techniques of working capital management can be divided into two parts. 'echniques
relevant for the management of working capital as a whole and the techniques relevant for
the management of each component of working capital cash account receivable and
inventory.
'echniques relevant for the management of working capital
One of the very important issues in the management of working capital is to
decide how much to invest in current assets. 'he investment in current assets is generally
influenced by sales volume. 'herefore before firm is able to decide about he quantum of working capital. It should be forecast its feature sales volume accurately or near
accurately. 'his is equal true about the components of working capital as well.
TIME SERIES MODELS
'he time series models are based on the assumptions that the past trend will
continue repeating in the future. In the construction of tikes series, models, historical
recordings of the factors to be forecasted is taken into the account and their pattern and
the relationship over the time is established on the basis of the pattern so established
future forecast is made.
ECONOMETRIC MODELS

variable. 'hese equations attempt to establish the nature of relationship between variables
enabling the analysts to study the value of the dependent variable on the basis of the value
of the independent variable. 'hese models are sophisticated, very useful techniques.

'he need for working capital to run the day2to2day business activities cannot
be overemphasi(ed. e will hardly find a business firm, which does not require any
amount of working capital. e know that a firm should aim at maximi(ing the wealth of
its shareholders. In its endeavor to do so, a firm should earn sufficient return from its
operations. 'he firm has to invest enough funds in current assets of generating sales.
)urrent assets are needed because sales do not convert into cash instantaneously. 'here is
always an operating cycle involved in the conversion of sales into cash.

inventory level is too little, the firm will face frequent stock outs involving heavy
ordering cost and if the inventory level is too high it will be unnecessary tie up of

the other hand, have been considered as a reward for early payment and as a penalty for
late payment. 'he 0reward1 has often been interpreted as a loss rather than as a part of
unit cost. 'hus in would not be difficult to find difference of opinion as to whether
invoice cost includes or excludes cash discount.
hen the 0current re plain frastracture cost1 of material on hand at the close of a
year is less than the actual cost, the inventory value is reduced to replainfrastracture cost
!current market price". 'hus the acceptable basis inventory valuation is he 0lower of cost
or marker1 or more properly the 0lower of actual cost or replainfra stracture cost1.
'he determination of inventory values is very important from the point of view of
the balance sheet and the income statement since costs not included in the inventory !the
balance sheet" are considered to be expensive and are thus included in the income
statement.
,al5a!ion o' in(en!orie" 9 3e!od o' de!er3ina!ion#
<hough the prime consideration in the valuation of inventories is cost, there are
a number of generally accepted methods of determining the cost of inventories at the
close of an accounting period. 'he most commonly used methods are first in first out
!FIFO" average, and last in first out !3IFO". 'he selection of the method for determining
cost for inventories valuation is important for its has a direct bearing on the cost of goods
sold and consequently on profit. hen a method is selected, it must be used consequently
and cannot be change from year to year in order to secure the most favorable profit for
each year.
THE FIFO METHOD 6FIRST-IN FIRST- OUT METHOD4#
/nder this method it is assumed that the materials or goods first received are the
first to be issued or sold. 'hus, according to this method, the inventory on a particular
date is presumed to be composed of the items which were acquired most recently.
'he value inventory would remain the same even if the 0perpetual inventory
system1 is followed.

'his method is based on the assumption that last item of material or goods purchased are the first to be issued or sold. 'hus, according to this method, inventory
consists of items purchased at the earliest cost.

'his method has the following advantages.
9. It takes not account the current market conditions while valuing materials issued
to different 5obs or calculating the cost of goods sold.

eighted average price method is very popular on account of its being based on
the total quantity and value of materials purchased besides reducing number of
calculations. &s a matter of fact the new average price is to be calculated only when a
fresh purchase of materials is made in place of calculating it every now then as is the case
with FIFO, 3IFO method. owever, in case of this method different prices of materials
are charged from production particularly when the frequency of purchase and issuesEsales
is quite large and the concern is following perpetual inventory system.
,ALUATION OF IN,ENTORIES 9 IMPACT ON THE FLO$ OF
COSTS#
&s should be quite evident, the different methods of calculating inventory valueswill all have their impact on the flow of costs through the balance sheet into the income
statement. 'he dollars that are paid to acquire inventory are always divided between the
%alance sheet !inventories" and the income statement !costs of goods sold", there is not
other place to put them. 'hus if the different methods of calculating inventory produce
differing inventory values, they will also produce differing cost of goods sold figures, and
