N: I know you well enough to never underestimate your perceptiveness...therefore it follows that I cannot follow your explanation.

<As a long, I'm discussing, on this thread, companies with excess working capital. Please note the adjective "excess," i.e., more than the company needs. A stock with a balance sheet this strong has more value than what is revealed by its p/e or PS>

If you really want to look at 'excess' working capital (which could be returned to shareholder or invested in expanding business), wouldn't you need to subtract the 'needed' working capital somewhere along the way?
