Acid-test or Quick Ratio measures the ability of a company to use its cash or near cash assets to extinguish or pay-off its current liabilities immediately. Near cash assets are those that can be quickly converted to cash at close to their book values.Formula:ATR = (Current Assets - (Inventories + Prepayments)) / Current LiabilitiesA company with a quick ratio of less than 1 cannot currently pay-off all its current liabilities.
