Working capital requirement (WCR) and payment terms
Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 20 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 193 days. Excellent situation: suppliers finance 173 days of the operating cycle (retail model). Inventory turnover is 183 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. WCR is negative (-10 days): operations structurally generate cash. Notable WCR improvement over the period (-107%), freeing up cash.
