Liquidity Ratio

Liquidity ratios are measurements used to examine the ability of an organization to pay off its short-term obligations. This ratios show whether the company is liquid or not in its nature.

Examples of liquidity ratios:-

Current Ratio

Acid Test Ratio

Cash Ratio

Current Ratio = Current Assets/Current Liabilities

= 47,134,000/57,771,000

0.8158

A company is generally said to be highly liquid if its current ratio is more than 1.

Here the current ratio of this company is less than 1. So, the company is not said to be less liquid. To pay current liability of $1, company only has assets of $0.8158.
