Name: Working Capital Turnover

Definition: Working capital turnover shows how efficiently the company uses its short-term resources — like cash, inventory, and receivables — to generate sales. Higher turnover means the company squeezes more sales from its working capital. Lower turnover may indicate inefficient inventory, slow collections, or too much short-term capital tied up unnecessarily.
