Let’s analyze our working capital.
The output shows an interactive panel. To see the effect of paying late or paying early, use the slider on the bottom.
If we were to pay invoices 5 days late, then the working capital would increase by $182k and the average days it takes us to pay invoices would increase to 27 days.
Alternatively, if we were to pay invoices 5 days early, then the working capital would decrease by around a million dollars and the average days it takes us to pay invoices would drop to 17 days.
