Answer:

The quick ratio is calculated by dividing a company's current obligations by the value of its "quick" assets. Cash and assets that may be turned into cash quickly, often within 90 days, are referred to as "quick assets."

Explanation:

  • The quick ratio, often known as the acid test, is a financial ratio that divides the sum of a company's cash and equivalents, marketable securities, and accounts receivable by its current liabilities. The entire quantity of quick assets is employed in this calculation.
  • A quick ratio is calculated by dividing fast assets by quick liabilities. The quick ratio is an indicator of a company's short-term liquidity situation and measures its ability to meet short-term commitments with its most liquid assets.
  • The quick ratio is derived by dividing the total of the company's current obligations by the sum of its cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and account receivables. Quick assets are another name for these extremely liquid investments.

There are two ways to calculate quick ratio: QR = (Current Assets - Inventories - Prepaid Expenses) / Current Liabilities. QR = (Cash + Cash Equivalents + Marketable Securities + Accounts Receivable) / Current Liabilities.
