A business reported a working capital of $6,000 on January 31. On February 2, trade receivables paid $1,150 to settle debts of $1,200, and damaged inventory costing $200 was written off. Calculate the working capital at the close of business on February 2.

(a) $7,150
(b) $4,600
(c) $6,950
(d) $5,750
Explanation: Working capital is Current Assets minus Current Liabilities. The cash receipt of $1,150 increases cash but decreases receivables by $1,200, resulting in a net decrease of $50 in current assets. The $50 discount allowed is an expense reducing equity, not affecting current assets/liabilities. Writing off $200 inventory reduces current assets by $200. Total reduction: $50 + $200 = $250. $6,000 - $250 = $5,750.

A business reports a working capital of $6,000 as of January 31. On February 2, trade receivables pay $1,150 to settle debts of $1,200, and damaged inventory costing $200 is written off. Calculate the working capital at the close of business on February 2.

(a) $6 950
(b) $7 150
(c) $4 600
(d) $5 750
Explanation: Working capital is Current Assets minus Current Liabilities. The receipt of $1,150 cash increases cash (current asset) but decreases trade receivables (current asset) by the same amount, resulting in no net change. The $50 discount allowed reduces current assets. The $200 inventory write-off reduces current assets. Thus, $6,000 - $50 - $200 = $5,750.
