acid-test ratio

Read a random definition: rescussu

A quick definition of acid-test ratio:

The acid-test ratio, also known as the quick-asset ratio, is a way to measure how easily a company can pay off its debts. It looks at the company's quick or liquid assets, such as cash and accounts receivable, and compares them to its current liabilities. This ratio helps investors and analysts understand if a company has enough cash on hand to cover its short-term debts.

A more thorough explanation:

The acid-test ratio, also known as the quick-asset ratio, is a financial ratio that measures a company's ability to pay off its current liabilities using its most liquid assets. These assets include cash, marketable securities, and accounts receivable.

The formula for calculating the acid-test ratio is:

Acid-Test Ratio = (Current Assets - Inventory) / Current Liabilities

For example, if a company has $100,000 in current assets, $20,000 of which is inventory, and $50,000 in current liabilities, the acid-test ratio would be:

($100,000 - $20,000) / $50,000 = 1.6

A ratio of 1 or higher is generally considered good, as it indicates that the company has enough liquid assets to cover its current liabilities. A ratio of less than 1 may indicate that the company may have difficulty paying off its debts.

Overall, the acid-test ratio is an important measure of a company's financial health and liquidity.

It is shitty that was a pattern of behavior but I am glad someone is finally standing up for themselves. Like I can be a pretty rigid butthole guy when it comes to getting stuff but a complete lack of empathy or situational awareness shown by the school and their staff is mind blowing. When I was talking about it in the office they all thought I was lying cause it sounds so crazy.

Idk if any of you watch UFC but one time interim heavyweight champ Tom Aspinall won a fight and said on the mic afterwards “if you feel scared to do something, that’s a pretty good sign you should just go fucking do it” and I believe that applies very much to people wondering if they should R&R. Sure you can but why not just see what happens now?
