An accounting technique known as net realizable value (NRV) measures how much inventory and accounts receivable a business can turn into cash. When a business is prepared to sell an asset, the accountant for that business may use NRV.

Predicting a company's future earnings after selling may be made easier if you are aware of how to compute this metric and the internal and external variables that affect it.

Accounts receivable, often known as receivables, are a type of credit provided by a firm that typically has terms that demand payments to be made within a year or the current accounting period.
