Determine the quick ratio for December 31 of both years. If required, round your answers to one decimal place Quick Ratio Previous year Current year:

Explanation / Answer

Answer to Part 1.

Quick Ratio = (Current Assets – Inventory)/ Current Liabilities

Previous Year:
Quick Ratio = (2,012,000 – 428,000) / 660,000
Quick Ratio = 1,584,000 / 660,000
Quick Ratio = 2.4 : 1

Current Year:
Quick Ratio = (1,987,000 – 447,000) / 660,000
Quick Ratio = 1,540,000 / 700,000
Quick Ratio = 2.2 : 1
