Question

Bonner Automotive has shareholders' equity of $218,700. The firm owes a total of $141,000 of which 40 percent is payable within the next year. The firm has net fixed assets of $209,800. What is the amount of the net working capital?

Answer 1

Answer:

$93,500

Explanation:

Net Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

Current Assets = Total Equity + Liability - Fixed Assets

= $218,700 + $141,000 - $209,800 = $149,900

Current Liability = $141,000 X 40% = $56,400

As out of total due 40% is payable within a year, which means it is current liability.

Net working capital = $149,900 (current assets) - $56,400 (current liability)

= $93,500
