Correct answer
Explanation
Acid Test Ratio (Quick Ratio) = Quick Assets / Current Liabilities. Quick assets = Sundry Debtors + Bills Receivable + Cash at Bank = 15000 + 12500 + 17500 = Rs. 45000. Current liabilities = Creditors + Bills Payable = 25000 + 15000 = Rs. 40000. Ratio = 45000/40000 = 1.125:1. Stock is excluded as it's less liquid.
