(b) State the factors that affect the goodwill of a firm.
5.The total capital employed in a company is Rs. 1,70,00,000 out of which Rs. 80,00,000 represents equity capital, Rs. 20,00,000 general reserves, Rs. 50,00,000 long term borrowings in the form of debentures and Rs. 20,00,000 bank overdraft. The current assets of the company are Rs. 85 lakh, make up of stock Rs. 30 lakh, debtors Rs. 35 lakh, advances Rs. 14 lakh and cash Rs. 6 lakh. Compute (a) Current Ratio (b) Quick Ratio and (c) Debt Equity Ratio. 4+4+4
Ans: Ans: (a) Current Ratio = Current Assets/ Current Liabilities
= 85 Lakhs/20 Lakhs
= 4.25: 1
(b) Quick ratio = Quick assets/Current Liabilities
= (85 Lakhs – 30 Lakhs)/ 20 Lakhs
= 55 Lakhs/20 Lakhs
=2.75: 1
(c) Debt Equity ratio = Debt (long term)/Equity
= 50 Lakhs/100 Lakhs
= 0.5: 1
Here, Equity = Capital + reserves = (80 + 20) = 100 Lakhs
