[amp_mcq option1=”2, 4, 3 and 1″ option2=”1, 2, 4 and 3″ option3=”4, 2, 3 and 1″ option4=”3, 4, 1 and 2″ correct=”option2″]<\/p>\n

The correct answer is: B. 1, 2, 4 and 3<\/strong><\/p>\n

The liquidity of a company is its ability to meet its short-term obligations. The four ratios you have listed are all liquidity ratios, and they measure the company’s ability to pay its short-term debts.<\/p>\n

The basic defensive interval ratio is the most conservative of the four ratios. It measures the number of days that a company can operate without having to generate any new cash flow. It is calculated by dividing the company’s cash and cash equivalents by its average daily operating expenses.<\/p>\n

The current ratio is a more common liquidity ratio. It measures the company’s ability to pay its short-term debts with its current assets. It is calculated by dividing the company’s current assets by its current liabilities.<\/p>\n

The quick ratio is a stricter measure of liquidity than the current ratio. It measures the company’s ability to pay its short-term debts with its most liquid assets, which are cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments. It is calculated by dividing the company’s quick assets by its current liabilities.<\/p>\n

The super quick ratio is the strictest measure of liquidity. It measures the company’s ability to pay its short-term debts with its most liquid assets, which are cash and cash equivalents. It is calculated by dividing the company’s cash and cash equivalents by its current liabilities.<\/p>\n

Therefore, the liquidity of the four ratios in descending order is:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Basic defensive interval ratio<\/li>\n
  2. Current ratio<\/li>\n
  3. Quick ratio<\/li>\n
  4. Super quick ratio<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
