Question 27

Multiple Choice

A corporate loan applicant has cash of $40, receivables of $50, and inventory of $20. The applicant also has current debts of $65. If the bank's policy requires a current ratio of 1.75 or better and an acid test ratio of 1.25 or better would the applicant receive the loan?


A) Yes, because the applicant's current ratio and acid test ratios are acceptable.
B) No, because the applicant's current ratio and acid test ratios are both unacceptable.
C) No, because although the applicant's current ratio is acceptable, its acid test ratio is not.
D) No, because although the applicant's acid test ratio is acceptable, its current ratio is not. Current ratio = (40 + 50 + 20) /65 = 1.69, Not acceptable; Acid Test (40 + 50) /65 = 1.38, Acceptable
