Working Capital Turnover

This ratio measures how efficiently a business uses its working capital to generate revenue. Calculated as Net Sales ÷ Average Working Capital, it shows how many times working capital is turned over in a period. A high turnover indicates effective asset utilisation; too high may signal liquidity risks.
