ACID TEST RATIO/QUICK RATIO(QR)
• Used to examine whether firm has adequate cash or cash equivalents to meet
current obligations without resorting to liquidating non cash assets such as
inventories
• Measures position of liquidity at a point of time
• QR = Quick Assets / Current Liabilities
Quick assets = Current assets – (inventories + prepaid expenses)
= 681–(355+64) = 262
Current liabilities = 399
• QR = 262/399 = 0.66
• As a thumb rule ideal QR = 1; should not be less than 1

Stock/Inventory Turnover Ratio
Interpretation
• A high inventory turnover indicates efficient management of
inventory because more frequently the stocks are sold, the
lesser amount of money is required to finance the inventory.
• In a business where stock turnover ratio is high goods can be
sold at a low margin of profit and even then the profitability can
be high.
• A low inventory turnover implies over-investment in inventories,
dull business, stock accumulations, poor quality of goods, slow
moving goods and low profits as compared to investments.
• This ratio can be used for comparing the efficiency of sales policy
of two companies doing same business. The stock policy of the
management of that firm whose stock turnover ratio is high will
be treated more efficient.
Problem 1
Opening Stock 29,000 Closing Stock 31,000 Sales 3,20,000 Gross
Profit ratio 25% on Sales. Calculate Inventory Holding Period,
Stock Turnover Ratio and Purchases
From the following information calculate the a) COGS b)
Opening Stock & Closing Stock c) Quick Assets and Current
Assets
• Cost of goods sold = Opening stock + net purchases + direct expenses – closing stock
= Rs. 50,000 + (Rs. 2,90,000- Rs. 15,000) + Rs. 10,000 -
Rs. 75,000
= Rs. 2,60,000
• Total Sales = Cash Sales + Credits Sales
= Rs. 1,00,000 + Rs 1,70,000
= Rs. 2,70,000
• Gross profit = Total Sales - Cost of goods sold
= Rs. 2,70,000- Rs. 2,60,000
= Rs. 10,000
• Gross profit Ratio = 10,000 X 100
2,70,000
= 3.704 %
Net Profit Ratio or Net Margin
• Debt-Equity ratio
= Long-term Debt’s/ Share holders funds
Where
Long- term Debt = Debentures + Long – term loans
Shareholders Funds =
Equity Share Capital + Preference Share Capital +
Reserves and Surplus– Share Issue Expense
Interpretation
• A low debt equity ratio reflects more security to long term creditors.
From security point of view, capital structure with less debt and more
equity is considered favorable as it reduces the chances of bankruptcy.
• A high ratio, on the other hand, is considered risky as it may put the
firm into difficulty in meeting its obligations to outsiders. However,
from the perspective of the owners, greater use of debt, firm can enjoy
the benefits of trading on equity which help in ensuring higher returns
for them if the rate of earning on capital employed is higher than the
rate of interest payable. But it is considered risky and so , with the
exception of a few business , the prescribed ratio is limited to 2:1.
Problem
• Calculate Debt Equity Ratio , from the following information:
• 10,000 preference share of Rs. 10 each Rs. 1,00,000
• 5,000 equity shares of Rs. 20 each Rs. 1,00,000
• Creditors Rs. 45,000
• Debentures Rs. 2,20,000
• Profit and Loss accounts(Cr.) Rs. 70,000
Solution
• Debt = Debentures = Rs. 2,20,000
• Equity = Equity share capital + Preferences Share Capital +
profit and Loss accounts
• = Rs. 1,00,000 + Rs. 1,00,000 + Rs. 70,000
• = Rs. 2,70,000
• Debt Equity Ratio
= Long term debt/ shareholders’ funds
= Rs. 2,20,000 / Rs. 2,70,000
= 0.81:1
Total Assets to Debt Ratio
