Explanation

To solve this, we first determine the Current Liabilities using the provided Quick Ratio and Liquid Assets. Once Current Liabilities are known, we calculate Current Assets by adding Inventory to the Liquid Assets. Finally, the Current Ratio is found by dividing the calculated Current Assets by the Current Liabilities.

Solution Steps

  1. Calculation of Current Liabilities: Quick Ratio = Liquid Assets / Current Liabilities 2 = Rs. 1,00,000 / Current Liabilities Current Liabilities = Rs. 1,00,000 / 2 Current Liabilities = Rs. 50,000

  2. Calculation of Current Assets: Current Assets = Liquid Assets + Inventory Current Assets = Rs. 1,00,000 + Rs. 20,000 Current Assets = Rs. 1,20,000

  3. Calculation of Current Ratio: Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities Current Ratio = Rs. 1,20,000 / Rs. 50,000 Current Ratio = 2.4 : 1
