Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What does the current ratio calculator do?
It calculates the current ratio and quick ratio from current assets, inventory and current liabilities.
What is the difference between the two ratios?
The current ratio divides all current assets by current liabilities. The quick ratio removes inventory because it sells slowly.
What is a healthy current ratio?
A ratio between 1.5 and 2 is usually seen as healthy. Below 1 can mean the business may struggle to pay its short-term bills.
Why does it ask for inventory separately?
Inventory is asked separately so the tool can subtract it from current assets to compute the quick ratio, which shows liquidity without slow-selling stock.
