When I got 1:1 i just immediatly thought they did a cute little question with a simple number, and moved on.

1:1 peoples! the only current assets in the text under the syllabus are inventories, cash, receivables

Ok, so we've pretty much settled the fact that it's 1:1, but what did yous put for the second part of the question?

You had to interpret the current ratio.

i said something like for every $1 of liabilities there is $1 of assets. shows that the business is high risk.

1:1 for me too ! ;)

That means that for every $1 of Liablities, There is $1 of Assets. This a rather acceptable ratio as it is within a common safe zone of 1:1 to 1:3.

That's my answer

The current ratio is 1.2:1 because intangibles such as good will are seen as a current asset.

I put 1.2:1 too because Goodwill is a current asset...

Guess we'll have to wait till the results come out...
u nub do you even know what goodwill is?
it's not even physical and it cant even be converted into cash .. let alone be a current asset
