• We can see that the accounts are for the whole of the virgin group

The Current Ratio I think I
remember this one!
![Page 10: Ok, so what is a Ratio? Well a ratio is a way of using numbers to look at how well or how badly a business is doing](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56649e165503460f94b01925/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
CURRENT RATIO
• The Current Ratio will help you to understand how easily a business can meet all of their liabilities.
• Does the business have enough money available to allow them to pay for all of their debts if they was required to pay them straight away?
![Page 11: Ok, so what is a Ratio? Well a ratio is a way of using numbers to look at how well or how badly a business is doing](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56649e165503460f94b01925/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• It is giving us a measure of their LIQUIDITY.
![Page 12: Ok, so what is a Ratio? Well a ratio is a way of using numbers to look at how well or how badly a business is doing](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56649e165503460f94b01925/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
There are 3 main reasons why a business needs adequate working capital.
It must:
• pay staff wages and salaries
• settle debts and therefore avoid legal action by creditors
• benefit from cash discounts offered in return for prompt payment

• 2007:
14531 = 0.24

Is it any good?• Well any answer between 1.5 and 2.0 is
excellent as this means that there is enough money available to pay all of their debts off at once and still continue in business
• If too high means that there may be too much money lying around
• If too low then they don’t have enough money to pay their debts
![Page 16: Ok, so what is a Ratio? Well a ratio is a way of using numbers to look at how well or how badly a business is doing](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56649e165503460f94b01925/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• What is happening with Virgin?
• Why is this a problem?
![Page 17: Ok, so what is a Ratio? Well a ratio is a way of using numbers to look at how well or how badly a business is doing](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56649e165503460f94b01925/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• The company will have to fund the deficit through perhaps an overdraft that will cost them as there are interest payments. Also the funds could be used more productively
• Need to get more liquid assets e.g collecting debts from debtors more quickly or holding less stock
![Page 18: Ok, so what is a Ratio? Well a ratio is a way of using numbers to look at how well or how badly a business is doing](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56649e165503460f94b01925/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The Acid Test Ratio
This is a new one for you!! It is very similar to the Current ratio but has stock taken out
![Page 19: Ok, so what is a Ratio? Well a ratio is a way of using numbers to look at how well or how badly a business is doing](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56649e165503460f94b01925/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The Acid Test Ratio
Current Assets – Stock Current Liabilities
The higher it is the better!
It can only come up if they give you a stock figure in the exam!
![Page 20: Ok, so what is a Ratio? Well a ratio is a way of using numbers to look at how well or how badly a business is doing](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56649e165503460f94b01925/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What does it show?• If the acid test ratio was 1.24 this would
mean that for every £1 a business owns it has £1.24 of assets that can be sold very quickly to pay it.
• Stock is not included because it may not be a finished good ready for sale.
