2. Calculate the quick ratio (acid-test ratio).
Expert Answer
Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities
3800000 / 1908000 = 1.992 times
Quick ratio = Quick assets / Current liabilities
Quick assets = Current assets – Inventory – Prepaid expenses
$3,800,000 – $500,000 – 0 = 33,00,000
Quick ratio = 33,00,000 / 1908000 = 1.73 times
