24 :- Current Liabilities of a company are Rs 1,50,000. Its Current Ratio is 3:1 and Acid Test Ratio (Liquid Ratio) is 1:1. Calculate values of Current Assets, Liquid Assets and Inventory.

Solution :-

Current Ratio = Current Assets/Current Liabilities
                 3 = Current Assets/1,50,000
Current Assets = 1,50,000 x 3
                         = Rs 4,50,000

Quick Ratio = Liquid Assets/Current Liabilities
              1   = Current Assets – Inventories/Current Liabilities
              1   = 4,50,000 – Inventories/1,50,000
 1,50,000    = 4,50,000 – Inventories
Inventories = 4,50,000 – 1,50,000
                   = Rs 3,00,000

Liquid Assets = Current Assets – Inventories
                       = 4,50,000 – 3,00,000
                       = Rs 1,50,000
