Solutions

Expert Solution

Requirement a:-

In order to understand the liquidity of the company, calculate the company's current ratio:-

a.) Current Ratio = Current Assets/ Current Liabilities
Particulars 2020 Balance 2019 Balance
Cash             9,000           12,000
Accounts Receivable           80,000           48,000
          89,000           60,000
Accounts Payable           20,000           15,000
Current Ratio               4.45               4.00

Liquidity of the company is the ability of the company to pay its obligations as they come due. A company with a higher liquidity will be able to meet its short term obligations with its available resources without much difficulty. A higher liquidity is always a positive factor for any company.

As can be observed from the above calculation, the company's liquidity has improved from 2019 to 2020. The company's current assets are approx 4 times its current liabilities which means the company has a good liquidity ratio.

Requirement b:-

The Ratio that i had used to comment about the Liquidity is Current Ratio. Current ratio is a measure of current assets to current liabilities. It helps a user of the data to understand the number of times the company's current liabilities are worth the current assets to pay its obligations as they come due.

Please let me know if you have any questions via comments and all the best :)
