Current Ratio:
curret Asset
Current Ratio=
current liability
Interpretation
In 2011 the firm’s ability to cover its current liabilities with its current assets
was 1.05. in 2012 the ratio goes up to 1.09 as compared to 2011 which means
that the company has the ability to pay its liabilities as the definition says that
higher the ratio greater the ability of the firm to pay its bills. This tells that
Coca-Cola is improving their liquidity and efficiency because their current ratio
is improving.
Quick Ratio
curret Asset−Inventory
Quick Ratio=
current liability
Years 2011 2012
Current Ratio 0.92 0.97
Interpretation
According to the definition of Quick ratio the company should have the ability
to pay its liabilities through its most liquid assets. The table shows that in 2011,
the firm has the ratio 0.92 cents. Then we observe a slight improvement in
2012. So we can figure out from the ratios that Coca-Cola still cannot pay its
debts without its inventory. This leads us to believe that Coca-Cola is a
somewhat risky business even through it is the largest in the nonalcoholic
beverage industry.
