    Current Ratio is 2.04 times

    Quick Ratio is 0.80 times

    Explanation:

    a. Current Ratio : The current ratio is that ratio which shows relationship between current assets and current liabilities. It is computed to check the liquidity of the firm.

    Current Ratio = Current Assets : Current Liabilities

    = $376,717 : $184,372

    = 2.04 times

    Thus, the current ratio is 2.04 times

    b. Quick Ratio : The Quick ratio is also check the liquidity of the company but while computing it does not include inventories.

    Quick Ratio = (Current Assets - Stock) : Current Liabilities

    = ($376,717 - $228,937) : $184,372

    = 0.80 times

    Thus, the quick ratio is 0.80 times
