A firm has Current Assets of $500,000, Inventory of $200,000, Current Liabilities of $700,000, Total Assets of $3,000,000 and Total Liabilities of $3,500,000. Which of the following statements is correct:
a. |
this firm is bankrupt |
|
b. |
this firm has a Quick Ratio that is greater than one |
|
c. |
this firm has positive equity |
|
d. |
this firm is technically insolvent |
Ans- Option D. this firm is technically insolvent
As the company's Total Liabilities exceeds its Total Assets, they are unable to pay there debt in whole. They are technically insolvent.
- Quick ratio = (Current Assets - Inventory)/Current Liabilities
= ($500,000 - $200,000)/$700,000
= 0.43 times
As, Quick ratio is less than 1, statment b is False
- Total Liabilities exceeds its Total Assets, Equity is negative rather positive
