CMA Part 1 / Financial statements / Sample lesson

Read the short-term funding picture

Working capital compares the current assets a business holds with its current liabilities. It helps frame a discussion about short-term resources and obligations.

Working capital = Current assets - Current liabilities

For example, $240,000 in current assets and $150,000 in current liabilities leave $90,000 in working capital.

Check your understanding

A company has $180,000 in current assets and $125,000 in current liabilities. What is its working capital?

CMA FAQ

How many parts is the CMA exam?
Two parts: Financial Planning, Performance, and Analytics; and Strategic Financial Management.
What is the format of each CMA part?
Each part is four hours with 100 MCQs plus two scenario sets. For 2027, most English-language CMA sittings use case-based questions. IMA Japan announces CBQs for Japanese-language exams from January 2027. Mainland China, Taiwan and English-language Japan require a separate check of the current local registration and appointment format.
Is the CMA a substitute for the CPA?
No. CMA targets management accounting and strategic finance. CPA is the US public accounting licence path.
Does MiloPrep cover both CMA parts?
Yes. A paid CMA plan includes Part 1 and Part 2 practice.
Where do these CMA facts come from?
From IMA CMA exam materials. CBQ and essay delivery depends on window and locale, so re-check the handbook for the sitting you booked.
