what is current ratio formula

Answer Posted / jyothi.p

Current Ratio= Current Assets/Current Liabilities

Where Current Assets= cash in hand, cash at bank,
debitors,bills receivable, work in progress,closing stock,
shortterm investments, prepaid expenses etc.

Where Current liabilities= trade creditors,Bills
payable,bank overdraft,income tax payable,outstanding
expenses,shortterm advances etc.

A ratio equals or near to 2:1 is satisfactory

High current ratio indicates the firm is liquid and has an
ability to pay its current obligations in time
Low current ratio represents that the firms
liquidity/working capital position is not good & company
may face problems in payment of current liabilities.
