Interpretation: In 2016, Current Assets were 42% of total assets. In 2017, these have increased to 46%. Current liabilities on the other hand have decreased to 20% in 2017 as compared to 22% in 2016. Because of increase in the current assets and decrease in the current liabilities, the working capital position of the company has improved.
