Term: Banking -> Current ratio
Term:

Current ratio

Definition:

A ratio of a firm?s current assets to its current liabilities. Because a current ratio includes the value of inventories that have not yet been sold, it does not offer the best evaluation of the firm?s current status. The "quick" ratio, covering the most liquid current assets, produces a better evaluation.
