Correct Answer: 1.75 : 1


Solution : The measurement of indicators such as the current ratio, quick ratio, and operating cash flow ratio allows us to calculate liquidity ratios, which assess a company's capacity to satisfy debt obligations as well as its margin of safety.

Formula of Liquid ratio is

Liquid Ratio = (Current Assets- Inventory)/Current Liability

Hence the answer is as follows : (Cash Balance + Trade receivable) / Trade Payable

(5000 + 65000) / 40000

1.75 : 1

Note : Inventory and Prepaid Expenses are not curent assets for the purpose of Liquidity ratio as it considers only liquid assets, hence not included in current assets.

Hence the Correct answer is option 3.
