• Working Capital Days shows how many days it takes a company to convert its working capital into income.

  • Companies that take fewer days to turn working capital into sales revenue are more efficient than companies that take more days to generate the same amount of income.
  • If the number of working capital days decreases, this may be due to an increase in sales.
  • Conversely, if the number of working capital days is high or increasing, this may mean that sales are declining or that the company may need more time to collect accounts payable.
