Working capital includes current assets like inventory, accounts receivable, and cash. The objectives of working capital management are to maintain adequate liquidity and meet short-term obligations. Factors that affect working capital requirements include the nature of the business, size of operations, production and credit policies, and seasonal variations. The document also discusses different types of working capital like gross, net, permanent, and temporary working capital. It outlines how to calculate working capital using the operating cycle method.

Working capital (abbreviated WC) is a financial metric which represents operating liquidity available to a business, organization, or other entity, including governmental entities. Along with fixed assets such as plant and equipment, working capital is considered a part of operating capital. Gross working capital is equal to current assets. Working capital is calculated as current assets minus current liabilities. If current assets are less than current liabilities, an entity has a working capital deficiency, also called a working capital deficit and Negative Working capital

Capital structure refers to the specific mix of debt and equity used to finance a company’s assets and operations. From a corporate perspective, equity represents a more expensive, permanent source of capital with greater financial flexibility. Financial flexibility allows a company to raise capital on reasonable terms when capital is needed. Conversely, debt represents a cheaper, finite-to-maturity capital source that legally obligates a company to make promised cash outflows on a fixed schedule with the need to refinance at some future date at an unknown cost.
As we will show, debt is an important component in the “optimal” capital structure. The trade-off theory of capital structure tells us that managers should seek an optimal mix of equity and debt that minimizes the firm’s weighted average cost of capital, which in turn maximizes company value. That optimal capital structure represents a trade-off between the cost-effectiveness of borrowing relative to the higher cost of equity and the costs of financial distress.
In reality, many practical considerations affect capital structure and the use of leverage by companies, leading to wide variation in capital structures even among otherwise-similar companies. Practical considerations affecting capital structure include the following:
business characteristics: features associated with a company’s business model, operations, or maturity;
capital structure policies and leverage targets: guidelines set by management and the board that seek to establish sensible borrowing limits for the company based on the company’s risk appetite and ability to support debt; and
market conditions: current share price levels and market interest rates for a company’s debt. The prevalence of low interest rates increases the debt-carrying capacity of businesses and the use of debt by companies.
Because we are considering how a company minimizes its overall cost of capital, the focus is on the market values of debt and equity. Therefore, capital structure is also affected by changes in the market value of a company’s securities over time.
We tend to think of capital structure as the result of a conscious decision by management, but it is not that simple. For example, unmanageable debt, or financial distress, can arise because a company’s capital structure policy was too aggressive, but it also can occur because operating results or prospects deteriorate unexpectedly.
Finally, in seeking to maximize shareholder value, company management may make capital structure decisions that are not in the interests of other stakeholders, such as debtholders, suppliers, customers, or employees.

explain factors affecting capital structure;

2. Working Capital Management
Definition:-
• Working capital is that capital which is
required to meet day to day operation of an
organization.
• Working capital means the portion of capital
investment in short-term assets (or current
assets) of a firm.
3. CONTD…
According to definition, WCM is required to
meet the following expenses:
For having the stock of raw material, semi-
manufactured and fully finished goods;
For making payments of wages and salaries
For providing credit facility on purchase, to
the customers
For paying-off the expenses of advertisement
and promotional activities.
4. Objective of Working Capital
Management
• The goal of working capital management is to
manage the firm’s current assets and liabilities
in such a way that a satisfactory level of
working capital is maintained.
• The interaction between current assets and
current liabilities is, therefore the main theme
of the theory of the working capital
management.
5. Importance of working capital
1. Solvency of the business: Adequate working
capital helps in maintaining solvency of the
business by providing uninterrupted flow of
production.
2. Goodwill: Sufficient working capital enables a
business concern to make prompt payments and
hence helps in creating and maintaining
goodwill.
3. Easy Loans: A concern having adequate working
capital, high solvency and good credit standing
can arrange loans from banks and other on easy
and favourable terms.
6. Contd….
4. Cash discounts: Adequate working capital also
enables a concern to avail cash discounts on the
purchases and hence it reduces costs.
5. Regular supply of raw materials: Sufficient working
capital ensures regular supply of raw materials and
continuous production.
6. Regular payment of salaries, wages and other day-
to-day commitments: A company which has ample
working capital can make regular payment of salaries,
wages and other day-to-day commitments which
raises the morale of its employees, increases their
efficiency, reduces wastages and costs and enhances
production and profits.
7. Contd….
7. Ability to face crisis: Adequate working capital enables a
concern to face business crisis in emergencies such as
depression because during such periods, generally, there is
much pressure on working capital.
8. Quick and regular return on investments: Every investor
wants a quick and regular return on his investments.
Sufficiency of working capital enables a concern to pay quick
and regular dividends to its investors as there may not be
much pressure to plough back profits. This gains the
confidence of its investors and creates a favourable market
to raise additional funds ion the future.
9. High morale: Adequacy of working capital creates an
environment of security, confidence, and high morale and
creates overall efficiency in a business.
8. Factor Affecting working capital
1) Nature or Character of Business: The working capital requirement of
a firm basically depends upon the nature of this business. Public
utility undertakings like electricity water supply and railways need
very limited working capital because they offer cash sales only and
supply services, not products and as such no funds are tied up in
inventories and receivables. Generally speaking it may be said that
public utility undertakings require small amount of working capital,
trading and financial firms require relatively very large amount,
whereas manufacturing undertakings require sizable working capital
between these two extremes.
2) Size of Business/Scale of Operations: The working capital
requirement of a concern is directly influenced by the size of its
business which may be measured in terms of scale of operations.
3) Production Policy: In certain industries the demand is subject to wide
fluctuations due to seasonal variations. The requirements of working
capital in such cases depend upon the production policy.
9. 4) Seasonal Variation: In certain industries raw material is not
available through out the year. They have to buy raw materials
in bulk during the season to ensure and uninterrupted flow
and process them during the entire year.
5) Rate of Stock Turnover: There is a high degree of inverse co-
relationship between the quantum of working capital; and the
velocity or speed with which the sales are affected. A firm
having a high rate of stock turnover will need lower amount of
working capital as compared to affirm, having a low rate of
turnover.
6) Credit Policy: The credit policy of a concern in its dealing with
debtors and creditors influence considerably the requirement
of working capital. A concern that purchases its requirement
on credit and sell its products/services on cash require lesser
amount of working capital.
10. Contd…..
7) Business Cycle: Business cycle refers to alternate expansion and
contraction in general business activity. In a period of boom i.e.,
when the business is prosperous, there is a need of larger amount of
working capital due to increase in sales, rise in prices, optimistic
expansion of business contracts sales decline, difficulties are faced
in collection from debtors and firms may have a large amount of
working capital lying idle.
8) Rate of Growth of Business: The working capital requirement of a
concern increase with the growth and expansion of its business
activities. Although it is difficulties to determine the relationship
between the growth in the volume of business and the growth in
the working capital of a business, yet it may be concluded that of
normal rate of expansion in the volume of business, we may have
retained profits to provide for more working capital but in fast
growth in concern, we shall require larger amount of working
11. TypesofWorkingCapital
1. Gross Working Capital
Gross working capital is the amount of funds invested in the various
components
• 1. Financial Managers are profoundly concerned with current
assets:
• 2. Gross working Capital provides the current amount of working
capital at the right time;
• 3. It enables a firm to realize the greatest return on its investment;
• 4. It helps in the fixation of various areas of financial responsibility;
5. It enables a firm to plan and control funds and to maximize the
return on investment.
• For these advantages, gross working capital has become a more
acceptable concept in financial management
12. 2. Net working Capital
Networking Capital is the difference between current
assets and current liabilities. The concept of net
working capital enables a firm to determine how
much amount is left for operational requirements.
Net Working Capital Formula – Example
Consider a company called XYZ ltd that operates in a Retail
segment has the following current assets and current liabilities:
Cash: 10000
Accounts receivable: 6000
Inventory: 20000
Accounts payable: 3000
Outstanding salaries: 5000
13. 3.PermanentWorkingCapital
• Permanent Working Capital is the minimum amount of current
assets which is needed to conduct a business even during the dullest
season of the year.
• This amount varies from year to year, depending upon the growth of
a company and the stage of the business cycle in which it operates.
• It is the amount of funds required to produce the goods and services
which are necessary to satisfy demand at a particular point.
• It represents the current assets which are required on a continuing
basis over the entire year.
• It is maintained as the medium to carry on operations at any time.
Permanent working capital has the following characteristics:
1. It is classified on the basis of the time factors;
2. It constantly charges from one asset to another and continues to
remain in the business process
3. Its size increase with the growth of business operations
14. Types of permanent working capital
• We’ve defined what fixed working capital is in a
general sense, but there are two more specific sub-types
of permanent working capital:
• Regular working capital – the minimum amount of
working capital needed to maintain a cashflow; enough
money to purchase materials, produce inventory, turn
that inventory into profits, use those profits to purchase
more materials, and so on.
• Reserve working capital – the amount of working
capital that exceeds the regular working capital; reserve
working capital is there for unexpected business
expenses (like implementing a business disaster
recovery plan).
15. 4.TemporaryorVariableWorkingCapital
• It represents the additional assets which are required at
different times during the operating year-additional inventory,
extra cash, etc.
• Seasonal working capital is the additional amount of current
assets- particularly cash, receivable and inventory which is
required during the more active business seasons of the year.
It Is Temporarily Invested In Current Assets And Possesses The
Following Characteristics:-
1. It is not always gainfully employed, though it may change
from one asset to another, as permanent working capital does;
2. It is particularly suited to business of a seasonal or cyclical
nature.
16. 5.Balancesheetworkingcapital
• The balance sheet working capital is not which
is calculated from the items appearing in the
balance sheet.
• Gross working capital which is represented by
the excess of current assets, and net working
capital which is represented by the excess of
current assets over current liabilities are
examples of the balance sheet working capital.
17. 6. Negative working Capital
• Negative working Capital emerges when
current liabilities exceed current assets.
• Such a situation is not absolutely theoretical
and occurs when a firm is nearing a crisis of
some magnitude.
18. Adverse Consequences Of Inadequate
Working Capital
Due to non-availability of funds, it may become
difficult for the company to undertake profitable
projects.
It may become difficult to execute plans.
Difficulty in meeting day to day commitments.
This would further create operational inefficiency.
Due to insufficient working capital fixed asset
may not be efficiently utilized.
Inadequacy of working capital may also prevent
the company from availing attractive credit
facilities.
19. Dangers Of Excessive Working Capital
i. When there is a redundant working capital, it may
lead to unnecessary
ii. purchasing and accumulation of inventories causing
more chances of theft, waste and losses.
iii. Excessive Working Capital means idle funds which
earn no profits for the business and hence the business
cannot earn a proper rate of return on its investments.
iv. Increased bad debts due to defective credit policy.
v. Leads to managerial inefficiency.
vi. It may result into overall inefficiency in the
organisation.
20. Determining Financing-mix
There are two sources from which funds can be
raised for current assets financing-
Short term sources, like current liabilities and,
long term sources, such as share capital, long
term borrowings, internally generated
resources like retained earnings, etc.
21. OPERATING CYCLE
• The time period between purchase of
inventory(RW) and conversion into cash is
known as operating cycle.
• The operating cycle may be defined as the time
duration starting from the procurement of
goods or raw materials and ending with the
sales realization.
22.
23. Computation of Working Capital by
Operating Cycle method
Under this method working capital is calculated
in three steps :-
1) First, we calculate operating cycle period
2) Second, number of operating cycle in the year
3) Third, calculation of working capital
24. OPERATING CYCLE CONCEPT
1) Operating Cycle Period =
Gross Operating Cycle period
Less:- Payable Deferral Period
Where:- Gross period includes
Material Storage period
+ Production/Conversion Period
+ Finished Goods Holding Period
+ Average Collection Period

37. Approaches ForFinancingWorkingCapital
There are three basic approaches to determine an
appropriate financing mix:
1) Hedging approach, also called the matching
approach,
2) Conservative approach,
3) Aggressive approach.
38. Hedging(MaturityMatching)Approach
This is a meticulous strategy of financing the
working capital with moderate risk and
profitability.
Hedging strategy works on the cardinal principle
of financing i.e. utilizing long-term sources for
financing long-term assets i.e. fixed assets and a
part of permanent working capital and temporary
working capital are financed by short-term
sources of finance.
Long Term Funds will Finance >> FA + PWC
Short Term Funds will Finance >> TWC
39. ConservativeApproach
• This approach suggests that the estimated
requirement of total funds should be met
from long term sources; the use of short term
funds should be restricted to only emergency
situations or when there is an unexpected
outflow of funds.
Long Term Funds will Finance >> FA + PWC + Part of TWC
Short Term Funds will Finance >> Remaining Part of TWC
40. AggressiveStrategy
• The complete focus of the strategy is in profitability. It
is a high-risk high profitability strategy.
• In this strategy, the dearer funds i.e. long term funds
are utilized only to finance fixed assets and a part of
the permanent working capital.
• Complete temporary working capital and a part of
permanent working capital also are financed by the
short-term funds.
Long Term Funds will Finance >> FA + Part of PWC
Short Term Funds will Finance >> Remaining Part of PWC + TWC
