Answer:
Given,
Current liabilities = Rs-1,75,000
Current Ratio = 2:1
If 30,000 is paid to a creditor it will reduce both current assets as well as current liabilities as cash is being paid and creditors are reduced. Hence, new ratio will be:-
Current Ratio = Current Assets
-------------------------
Current liabilities
= 3,50,000 (WN 1) - 30,000
--------------------------------------
1,75,000 - 30,000
= 3,20,000
--------------
1,45,000
= 2.2 : 1
Working note 1) = Current assets
Current Ratio = Current Assets
-------------------------
Current liabilities
Current Assets = Current liabilities x current ratio
= 1,75,000 x 2
= 3,50,000.
Current ratio of company will be 2.6:1
