उत्तर
Working capital refers to current assets which help in day-to-day business operations.
Nature of business: A company which deals in trading or services will require low working capital because it manages a small operating cycle and absence of processing. On the other hand, a company manages a large operating cycle will require high working capital as the conversion of raw materials into the finished product before the end of sale transaction.
Manufacturing organisations ⇒ High working capital
Trading/Service organisations ⇒ Low working capital
