Accounting Ratios

Question:

What will be the effect on the current ratio, if debentures are issued against the purchase of fixed assets?

Options:

Improve

Reduce

Not alter

None of these

Correct Answer:

Not alter

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 3- Not alter.

Current ratio = Current assets/Current liabilities.

Debentures are non-current liabilities and fixed assets are non-current assets. So, there will be no increase or decrease in the current ratio parameter. So the current ratio will remain the same means not alter.
