    Working capital is ($98.7) in millions

    Current ratio is 0.51:1

    Explanation:

    Working Capital is the difference between current assets and current liabilities. So, $102.5 (in milions) less $202.2 (in millions) equals ($98.7) in millions. This means, the company's short-term obligation exceeds its current asset for the period.

    Current ratio also known as liquidity ratio. It measures the company's capacity to pay short-term obligation. To compute current ratio we simply divide current assets over current liabilities.

    Current Assets / Current Liabilities

    $102,500,000 / $201,200,000

    0.509443 or 0.51 : 1
