You have just calculated the acid-test ratio for Peak Performance Sporting Goods [acid test ratio = 1.0]. As a loan officer for the local bank, you are called into your boss's office to interpret the results of this ratio. Which of the following statements best reflects an understanding of these results?A) A company with an acid-test ratio = 1.0 demonstrates the ability to operate very conservatively. The bank should anticipate that this firm will always be able to meet its short-term liabilities.
B) This company is already having problems meeting its short-term liabilities.
C) An acid-test ratio = 1.0 means that this firm has $1.00 in current assets for every $2.00 in current liabilities. Peak Performance is a well-run operation, as long as it can continue to sell off its inventory.
D) An acid-test ratio = 1.0 tells us that without adequate inventory turnover, this company may represent a higher risk. Peak Performance's acid-test ratio shows that the firm maintains $1.00 in current assets for every $1.00 in current liabilities.
