【Answer to question 1】B
【analysis】
B is correct. A common-size balance sheet expresses all balance sheet accounts as a percentage of total assets and would provide insight into what portion of a company’s assets is liquid. On the other hand, cash and current ratios measure liquidity relative to current liabilities, not relative to total assets.
A is incorrect. The cash ratio is a measure of liquidity relative to current liabilities (but not assets), and it wouldn’t tell you the portion of the company’s assets that are liquid.
C in incorrect. The current ratio is a measure of liquidity relative to current liabilities (but not assets), and it wouldn’t tell you the portion of the company’s assets that are liquid. A common-size balance sheet expresses all balance sheet accounts as a percentage of total assets and would provide insight into what portion of a company’s assets is liq
【Answer to question 2】C
【analysis】
C is correct. The higher the current ratio, the more liquid the company. Thus, with a current ratio of 2.6 (1,800/700), the company is less liquid than the industry, which has a current ratio of 3.2. Current ratio = Current assets/Current liabilities.
A is incorrect. Failing to include the taxes payable or the loan (or the A/P) gives 1,800/400 = 4.5, which is above the industry average.
B is incorrect. The firm’s current ratio is 2.6, which is below the industry average.
成功=時間+方法，自制力是這個等式的保障。世上無天才，高手都是來自刻苦的練習。而人們經(jīng)常只看到“牛人”閃耀的成績，其成績背后無比寂寞的勤奮。小編相信，每天都在勤奮練習，即使是一點點的進步，大家一定可以成為人人稱贊的“牛人”。更多CFA考試資訊，點擊了解>
