  4. D

Cevap

₦80,000\text{₦}80,000
The net working capital is determined by subtracting total current liabilities from total current assets. Current assets comprise closing inventory (₦85,000\text{₦}85,000), net debtors after deducting provision (₦110,000\text{₦}110,000), and prepaid insurance (₦10,000\text{₦}10,000), summing to ₦205,000\text{₦}205,000. Current liabilities comprise bank overdraft (₦45,000\text{₦}45,000), trade creditors (₦65,000\text{₦}65,000), and accrued rent expense (₦15,000\text{₦}15,000), summing to ₦125,000\text{₦}125,000. Subtracting ₦125,000\text{₦}125,000 from ₦205,000\text{₦}205,000 yields ₦80,000\text{₦}80,000.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate Net Trade Debtors and Total Current Assets
Net Debtors = ₦120,000−₦10,000=��110,000\text{₦}120,000 - \text{₦}10,000 = \text{��}110,000. Total Current Assets = Closing Inventory (₦85,000\text{₦}85,000) + Net Debtors (₦110,000\text{₦}110,000) + Prepaid Insurance (₦10,000\text{₦}10,000) = ₦205,000\text{₦}205,000.
Current assets consist of cash or liquid assets expected to be converted into cash within one accounting year. Provision for doubtful debts must be subtracted from gross trade debtors to reflect net realizable value.
2
Identify and Calculate Total Current Liabilities
Total Current Liabilities = Bank Overdraft (₦45,000\text{₦}45,000) + Trade Creditors (₦65,000\text{₦}65,000) + Accrued Rent Expense (₦15,000\text{₦}15,000) = ₦125,000\text{₦}125,000.
Current liabilities are short-term obligations payable within one accounting period. Bank overdraft is a short-term current liability, while the 10-year bank loan is a long-term (non-current) liability.
3
Compute Net Working Capital
Working Capital = Total Current Assets - Total Current Liabilities = ₦205,000−₦125,000=₦80,000\text{₦}205,000 - \text{₦}125,000 = \text{₦}80,000.
Working capital measures the short-term liquidity operating buffer of a business.
