Explanation of Solution
Current ratio: The financial ratio which evaluates the ability of a company to pay off the debt obligations which mature within one year or within completion of operating cycle is referred to as current ratio. This ratio assesses the liquidity of a company.
Quick ratio: The financial ratio which evaluates the ability of a company to pay off the instant debt obligations is referred to as quick ratio. Quick assets are cash, marketable securities, and accounts receivables. This ratio assesses the short-term liquidity of a company from its most liquid (quick) assets.
Calculate the current ratio:
Therefore, the current ratio is 1.66:4.
Compute quick ratio:
Therefore, the quick ratio is 0.64:1.
- Current ratio evaluates the
liquidity - Quick ratio analyzes a company’s potential
working capital . - Comparison of these two ratios states the amount of liquidity that comes from the inventory, which is not as liquid as the quick assets.
