Net working capital


It is the difference between current assets current liabilities.

The concept net working capital enables a firm to determine the exact amount available at its disposal for operational requirements.


Negative working capital


When current liabilities exceed current assets negative working capital emerges.

Such a situation occurs when a firm is nearing a crisis some magnitude.
