Question

Jim's Hardware is adding a new product to its sales lineup. Initially, the firm will stock $36,000 of the new inventory, which will be purchased on 30 days' credit from a supplier. The firm will also invest $13,000 in accounts receivable and $11,000 in equipment. What amount should be included in the initial project costs for net working capital

Answer 1

Answer:

$13,000

Explanation:

Given that

The stock of the firm = $36,000

Invested amount in account receivable = $13,000

Invested amount in equipment = $11,000

So by considering the above information, the amount included in the initial project for net working capital is the account receivable i.e current assets minus current liabilities and the account receivable is come under the current assets so the same is to be included
