Working capital is a financial metric calculated as current assets minus current liabilities, representing a company's short-term liquidity and its ability to cover day-to-day operating expenses. Finance professionals, controllers, and business owners monitor working capital to assess operational efficiency and financial health, and to make decisions about inventory, receivables, and payables management. It's a fundamental concept in corporate finance and accounting.
