This ratio is also known as working capital ratio. This ratio is a measure of general liquidity and is most likely to make the analysis of the short term financial position or liquidity position of the firm. It is calculated by dividing the current assets with the current liabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CURRENT RATIO=\nCurrent Assets\/ Current Liabilities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>EXAMPLE: <\/strong>Suppose\nthe current assets of a concern as Rs. 2,50,000 and current liabilities of the\nconcern are Rs. 1,00,000. The current ratio will be calculated as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Current ratio= Current Assets\/ Current Liabilities<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Current ratio= 2,50,000\/1,00,000<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Current Ratio= 2.5:1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CURRENT ASSETS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Current assets are the assets which are likely to be\nconverted into cash or cash equivalents within 12 months from the date of\nbalance sheet or within the period of operating cycle.

The high current ratio may not be favorable due to the\nfollowing reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>There may be slow moving stocks. The stocks will\nbe pile up due to poor sale.<\/li><li>The figures of debtors may go up because debt\ncollection is not satisfactory.<\/li><li>The cash or bank balances may be lying idle\nbecause of insufficient investments opportunities.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>A relatively low current ratio represents that the liquidity\nposition of the firm is not good and the firm shall not be very able to pay its\ncurrent liabilities in time without facing difficulties. A low current ratio\nmay be not favorable due to the following reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>There may not be sufficient funds to pay off\nliabilities.<\/li><li>There business may be trading beyond its\ncapacity. The resources may not warrant the activities.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>IDEAL CURRENT RATIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ideal current ratio is considered in the ratio of 2:1\ni.e. current assets double the current liabilities is considered to be\nsatisfactory. The idea of having double the current assets as compared to\ncurrent liabilities is to provide for delays and losses in the realization of\ncurrent assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>FACTORS TO BE\nCONSIDERED WHILE USING CURRENT RATIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A number of factors should be taken into consideration\nbefore reaching the conclusion about short-term financial position. Some of\nthese factors are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>TYPE OF BUSINESS:<\/em>\nCurrent ratio is influenced by the type of business. A business with heavy\ninvestments in fixed assets may be successful even if the ratio is low. On the\nother hand, a trading concern will require a high current ratio because it has\nto pay its suppliers quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>TYPES OF PRODUCTS:<\/em>\nThe type of products in which a business deals also influences current ratio. A\nbusiness dealing in goods whose demand changes fast will require a higher\ncurrent ratio. On the other hand, if products have more intrinsic value such as\ngold, silver, metals etc. a lower current ratio may also do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>REPUTATION OF THE\nCONCERN:<\/em> A business unit with better goodwill and reputation may afford a\nsmall current ratio because the turnover is more and creditors also allow\ncredit for longer periods. A new concern or a concern which has not established\nits reputation will need higher current assets to pay current liabilities in\ntime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>SEASONAL INFLUENCE:<\/em>\nCurrent assets and current liabilities change with the seasons. In a peak\nseason, current assets will be more and current ratio will be high. On the\nother hand this ratio will go down when the season is off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>TYPE OF ASSETS\nAVAILABLE:<\/em> This type of current assets in the business also influences\ninterpretation of current ratio. If the current assets include large amounts of\nslow moving stocks then even a high ratio may not be satisfactory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All the above mentioned factors should be taken into mind\nwhile interpreting current ratio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>OBJECTIVE AND\nSIGNIFICANCE OF CURRENT RATIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Current ratio is a general and quick measure of liquidity of\na firm. It represents the \u2018margin of safety\u2019 or \u2018cushion\u2019 available to the\ncreditors and other current liabilities. It is most widely used for making\nshort-term analysis of the financial position or short-term solvency of the\nfirm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>LIMITATIONS OF\nCURRENT RATIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following are the limitations of the current ratio are\nas follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>CRUDE RATIO:<\/em> It is\na crude ratio because it measures only the quantity and not the quality of\ncurrent assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>WINDOW DRESSING: <\/em>The\nvaluation of current assets and window dressing is another problem if current\nratio. Current assets and liabilities are manipulated in such a way that\ncurrent ratio loses its significance. Window dressing may be indulged in the\nfollowing ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Over valuation of a closing stock.<\/li><li>Obsolete or worthless stocks are shown in the\nclosing inventory at their costs instead of writing them off.<\/li><li>Recording in advance cash receipts applicable to\nthe next year\u2019s sales.<\/li><li>Omission of a liability for merchandise included\nin inventory.<\/li><li>Treating a short-term obligation as a long-term\nliability.<\/li><li>Inadequate provision for bad and doubtful debts.<\/li><li>Inclusion in debtors advance payment for\npurchase of fixed assets.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Window dressing is done to show current ratio at a\nparticular figure. It does not present the real financial position of the\nconcern. The inferences drawn on such a will be faulty and deceptive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"LIQUID_RATIO\"><\/span><strong>LIQUID RATIO<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/liquid-ratio-interpretation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Liquid Ratio (opens in a new tab)\">Liquid Ratio<\/a>, a type of liquidity ratio, may be defined as the relationship between quick or liquid assets and current liabilities. An asset is said to be liquid if can be converted into cash within a short period without loss of value. The liquid ratio is also known as <a href=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/quick-ratio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Quick ratio (opens in a new tab)\">Quick ratio<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/acid-test-ratio-formula\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"acid test ratio (opens in a new tab)\">acid test ratio<\/a>. This ratio is the more rigorous test of liquidity that the current ratio. The liquid ratio interpretation is made with reference to current assets excluding prepaid expenses and inventories i.e. liquid assets and current liabilities. The liquid ratio is calculated as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Liquid Ratio= Liquid\nAssets\/ Current Liabilities.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>EXAMPLE:<\/strong> Suppose\nthe liquid assets of a concern as Rs. 2,50,000 and current liabilities of the\nconcern are Rs. 1,00,000.

The high liquid\nratio is bad when the firm is having slow-paying debtors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, a low liquid ratio represents that the\nfirm\u2019s liquidity position is not good. The low liquid ratio may be considered\nsatisfactory if it has fast moving inventories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>IDEAL LIQUID RATIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ideal liquid ratio is 1:1. It means the current assets\nshould be equal to the current liabilities only then the firm will be able to\nmeet its short term obligations. Although the liquid ratio is more rigorous\ntest of liquidity than current ratio, yet it should be used cautiously and rule\n1:1 should not be used blindly. A liquid ratio of 1:1 does not necessarily mean\nsatisfactory liquidity position if all the debtors cannot be realized and cash\nis needed immediately to meet the current obligations of the firm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SIGNIFICANCE OF\nLIQUID RATIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The liquid ratio is very useful in measuring the liquidity\nposition of a firm. It measures the firm\u2019s capacity to pay off current\nobligations immediately and is a more rigorous test of liquidity than the\ncurrent ratio. It is used as a complementary ratio to the current ratio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ABSOLUTE_LIQUID_RATIO\"><\/span><strong>ABSOLUTE LIQUID RATIO<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/absolute-liquid-ratio-formula\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Absolute Liquid Ratio (opens in a new tab)\">Absolute Liquid Ratio<\/a> is a type of liquidity ratio that is calculated to analyze the short term solvency or financial position of the firm. It is calculated to exclude the receivables from the current and liquid assets and to know about the absolute liquid assets. Although receivables, debtors and bills receivables are generally more liquid than inventories, yet there may be doubts regarding their realization into cash immediately or on time as there are the chances of bad debts. To exclude this possibility, absolute ratio is calculated. The absolute liquid ratio is also known as <a href=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/cash-ratio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Cash ratio (opens in a new tab)\">Cash ratio<\/a>. The absolute liquid ratio formula is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Absolute Liquid\nRatio= Absolute Liquid Assets\/ Current Liabilities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ABSOLUTE LIQUID\nASSETS: <\/strong>The assets included in absolute liquid assets are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Cash in\nHand:<\/strong> Cash in hand means the cash available with the business house at a\npoint of time.<\/li><li><strong>Cash at\nBank:<\/strong> Cash at bank means the cash that is with the business by the way of\ndeposits in the bank accounts may it be saving account, current account or any\nkind of other account.<\/li><li><strong>Marketable\nSecurities: <\/strong>Marketable Securities are those securities that can be readily\nconverted in to the cash by sale.
