Current ratioCurrent ratioA financial ratio which shows how easily the company could pay its bills if all its creditors demanded payment at once.

That said, some companies, notably supermarkets, happily survive on current ratios of less than 0.5.As always, it's best to compare the ratio of one company with others in its sector. Over 1.5 suggests excessive caution on the part of management.For a more stringent version of the current ratio, see 'acid test'.
