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: 7 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 32 days. Favorable situation: supplier credit is longer than customer credit by 25 days. Inventory turnover is 92 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360).

Over 2014-2024, WCR increased by +1159%, requiring additional financing.
