The Working Capital Ratio or Current Ratio is a financial ratio that measures whether or not a company has enough cash to pay off all the debt payments that are due over the next 1 year (12 months) It compares the organizations current assets and its current liabilities.
Formula:
WCR = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
Ex: Let us say ABC Corp has total assets of 5 crores and owes State Bank of India a loan of 3 crores to be repaid before the end of next year, the WCR for them would be
WCR = 5,00,00,000/3,00,00,000 = 1.66
This effectively means that, as of today ABC corp has 1.66 rupees for every rupee of debt it owes SBI.
Though this is good, an acceptable WCR in market terms is 2 or greater which shows that the company is sufficiently liquid and financially stable.
One can calculate the working capital ratio by: Totalling ones current assets and current liabilities, working capital is calculated by subtracting the current assets from current liabilities. The ratio is calculated by dividing the current assets by the current liabilities.

To calculate an increase in working capital, you first need to understand what working capital is. It represents the difference between a company’s current assets (cash, inventory, receivables) and current liabilities (accounts payable, short-term debt, etc.). The formula is: Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities To find the increase in working capital, compare two time periods for example, this year versus last year. Increase in Working Capital = Working Capital (Current Year) – Working Capital (Previous Year) Example: If a business had ₹500,000 in working capital last year and ₹650,000 this year: Increase = ₹650,000 – ₹500,000 = ₹150,000 This means the business has ₹150,000 more liquidity to manage operations or invest. A rise in working capital generally indicates that a company’s short-term financial health has improved, though it can also mean funds are tied up in inventory or receivables.

To calculate average working capital, first determine the working capital for each period by subtracting current liabilities from current assets. Then, sum the working capital figures for each period and divide by the number of periods to obtain the average. The formula can be expressed as: Average Working Capital = (Working Capital Period 1 + Working Capital Period 2 + ... + Working Capital Period N) / N. This provides a measure of the liquidity available to meet short-term obligations over the specified periods.
