Feature of the functioning of the current assets should be considered the feasibility of determining the optimum size of their components, which will minimize the need for sources of funding and increase efficiency. Efficient use of working capital facilitates the continuity of production and sales cycle, and also allows to maintain a sufficient level of liquidity and profitability, increases market value of the enterprise.

Established that the determining influence on all components of current assets are the following factors: the legal framework of regulation, the state of the economy, the level of competition in the industry, professional level staff, the company's competitiveness, accounting policy, organizational culture.
