Liquidity Ratio
Liquidity ratios 
These ratios analyse the short-term financial 
position of a firm and indicate the ability of 
the firm to meet its short-term commitments 
(current liabilities) out of its short-term 
resources (current assets). 
These are also known as ‘solvency ratios’. 
The ratios which indicate the liquidity of a 
firm are: 
Current ratio 
Liquidity ratio or Quick ratio or acid test ratio
Current ratio 
It is calculated by dividing current assets by current liabilities. 
Current ratio = Current assets where 
Current liabilities 
Conventionally a current ratio of 1.5:1 is considered 
satisfactory 
A ratio of 5 : 1 would imply the firm has Rs 5/- of assets to 
cover every Rs 1/- in liabilities 
A ratio of 0.75 : 1 would suggest the firm has only 75p in 
assets available to cover every Rs.1/- it owes
CURRENT ASSETS 
include – 
Inventories of raw material, 
WIP, finished goods, 
stores and spares, 
sundry debtors/receivables, 
short term loans deposits and 
advances, 
cash in hand and bank, 
prepaid expenses, 
incomes receivables and 
marketable investments and 
short term securities. 
CURRENT LIABILITIES 
include – 
sundry creditors/bills payable, 
outstanding expenses, 
unclaimed dividend, 
advances received, 
incomes received in advance, 
provision for taxation, 
proposed dividend, 
instalments of loans payable 
within 12 months, 
bank overdraft and cash 
credit
CA= cash in bank + prepaid expenses + bills 
receivables + sundry debtors 
CA= 12500 + 15500 + 5250 + 130750 = 164000 
CL= Sundry creditors = 101500 
CR= CA/CL 
= 164000 / 101500 
= 1.615
Quick Ratio or Acid Test Ratio 
In Finance, The Acid –Test ratio or quick ratio measures the ability 
of a company to use its near cash or quick assets to extinguish or 
retire its current liabilities immediately. 
Quick assets includes those current assets that can be quickly 
converted to the cash. 
Quick ratio = (current assets – inventories) / current liabilities 
Or 
Quick ratio= (cash and equivalents + marketable securities + 
accounts receivable) / current liabilities
Quick Ratio Analysis 
A quick ratio of 1.5 means that a company has $1.50 of liquid assets 
available to cover each $1 of current liabilities 
Ideally, quick ratio should be 1:1. 
If quick ratio is higher, company may keep too much cash on hand 
or have a problem collecting its accounts receivable. A quick ratio 
higher than 1:1 indicates that the business can meet its current 
financial obligations with the available quick funds on hand. 
A quick ratio lower than 1:1 may indicate that the company relies 
too much on inventory or other assets to pay its short-term liabilities. 
A company with a Quick Ratio of less than 1 cannot currently fully 
pay back its current liabilities.
SOLUTION 
CA= cash in bank + prepaid expenses + bills 
receivables + sundry debtors 
CA= 12500 + 15500 + 5250 + 130750 = 164000 
CL= Sundry creditors = 101500 
QR= CA- (Inventory + Prepaid expenses)/CL 
= 164000 -15500/ 101500 
= 1.46
