Correct Answer:
Option A – 1 : 4
Explanation
Using the Balance Sheet, the current ratio is calculated by dividing current assets by current liabilities:
Current assets = stock + debtors + banks + cash
current liabilities = drawings + creditors + accruals
current assets = 2000 + 1000 + 100 + 600 =3700
current liabilities = 2000 + 200 + 300 = 2500
3700 ÷ 2500 = 1.4
