    A Increase the working capital Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Decrease the working capital Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Not affect the working capital Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D All of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Working capital is the difference between the capital assets and capital liabilities. The purchase of fixed assets can be done by 2 ways: • Cash payment – this would reduce cash and therefore the current assets, thereby reducing the working capital • Credit purchase – this would increase the creditors and therefore the current liabilities, thereby again reducing the working capital.
