So, the working capital turnover ratio for the company is 6, which means that the company generated $6 in revenue for every $1 of working capital it had on average during the year. This indicates that the company is using its working capital efficiently to generate revenue and that it has a strong ability to generate sales from its current assets. A high working capital turnover ratio is generally considered a positive sign for investors and creditors, as it suggests that the company is effectively using its assets to generate revenue and that it has a lower risk of financial distress.
