Answer»

Answer:

YES, possible

Explanation:

Yes it is possible for a company to have zero or negative working capital.

Working capital TAKES account of the assets of the company as well as its liabilities. When the liabilities are more than the assets in hand, then the company WOULD have zero or negative working capital. If a company has negative working capital, it will hamper its LONG term investments and financial growth.

Higher the working capital, more will be its potential to grow in the business
