Explanation:

Liquidity ratio:  Liquidity ratios are calculated to determine short-term solvency of business. Analysis of current position of liquid funds determines the ability of the business to pay the amount due to its stakeholders

Solvency ratio: Ratios which are calculated to determine the long-term solvency of business are known as solvency ratios. Thus, these ratios determine the ability of a business to service its indebtedness.

Profitability ratio: These ratios are calculated to analyze the profitability position of a business. Such ratios involve analysis of profits in relation to sales or funds or capital employed.

Turnover ratio: Turnover ratios are calculated to determine the efficiency of operations based on effective utilization of resources. Higher turnover means better utilization of resources.
