1(c)

Explanation of Solution
Acid-Test Ratio: This ratio denotes that this ratio is a more rigorous test of solvency than the current ratio. It is determined by dividing quick assets and current liabilities. The acceptable acid-test ratio is 0.90 to 1.00. Use the following formula to determine the acid-test ratio:
Quick Assets are those assets that are most liquid. The examples of quick assets include cash and bank balances, marketable securities, and sundry debtors.
Compute quick ratio.
First, determine the quick assets as shown below:
Then, determine acid-test ratio by dividing quick assets and current liabilities. Accounts payable are the only current liabilities.
