In-depth Use Case / Real-world Example

Quick Ratio, or acid-test ratio, is calculated by subtracting inventory from current assets and dividing by current liabilities. For example, if a company has ₹500,000 in current assets, ₹200,000 in inventory, and ₹300,000 in current liabilities, the quick ratio is 1.0. It’s a more stringent test of liquidity, focusing on assets that can be quickly converted into cash.
