| morpheus918 | What about IV? They can't be too liquid if their times interest earned ratio is in the crapper! |
| tony1973 | Not IV as it is a financial risk ratio. |
| Shelton | How about II? |
| CFAnext | fixed assets dont tell muchs about liquidity of a firm. e.g. if fixed assest ratio is high, i.e. high return per fixed asset, it would help us judge how "liquid" the asset is! |
| nagri | CFAnext, you cannot judge about their liquidity, from fixed assets turnover ratio, you can judge about their efficiency in generating the sales. |
| reganbaha | Can't use fixed asset ratio as a measure of short term liquidity. Many a company has gone into administration with a lot of valuable fixed assets. Hence the term; asset rich, cash poor. |
| johntan1979 | Liquidity ratios: Current ratio Quick or Acid test ratio Cash ratio That's it and that's all folks! |
I am happy to say that I passed! Your study notes certainly helped prepare me for what was the most difficult exam I had ever taken.
