Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduction:

Estimates of working capital are determined from a balance sheet's variety of assets and liabilities. A corporation can better comprehend its near-term liquidity by focusing primarily on its current liabilities and offsetting them with its most liquid assets. A company's operational effectiveness and immediate financial stability are also gauged by its working capital. If a business has a sizable positive net worth, it may be able to invest in growth and expansion. A business may experience difficulties expanding or reimbursing creditors if its current assets do not meet its current liabilities. In fact, it might fail.
