Answer:

a.

Quick Ratio - Current Year = 1.44

Quick Ratio - Previous Year = 1.447826 rounded off to 1.45

b.

The quick ratio of the business has declined as it has less current assets to pay of each $1 of current liability than it had previous year.

Explanation:

A.

The quick ratio or acid test ratio is a financial ratio that is used to assess the liquidity of a business. It measures the amount of most liquid assets that the business has to pay each $1 of current liability of the business. The most liquid assets of a business are all of its current assets excluding inventory. The formula to calculate the quick ratio is,

Quick ratio = (Current Assets - Inventory) / Current Liabilities

Quick Ratio - Current Year = (660 + 1440 + 3300 - 1080) / 3000

Quick Ratio - Current Year = 1.44

Quick Ratio - Previous Year = (920 + 2050 + 1400 - 1040) / 2300

Quick Ratio - Previous Year = 1.447826 rounded off to 1.45

B.

The quick ratio of the business in previous year was approx. 1.45 which means that the business had $1.45 of most liquid current assets to pay each $1 of current liability while this year, it has $1.44 of current assets for each $1 of current liability. This means that the quick ratio of the business has declined as it has less current assets to pay of each $1 of current liability than it had previous year.

Unlike a general partnership, in a limited partnership
Trava [24]

In a limited partnership:

The inactive partner has limited liability for the business's debts

Explanation:

In a general partnership all partners share equal financial responsibility for the firm's decisions.

This means that all partners are supposed to have equal liabilities but hat is not the case for limited ones.

In limited partnerships there is a general partner who owns most of the business and has most of the availability and the limited partner has pooled resources for the business but has very little personal responsibility to it.

This model is usually there when the firm needs some investors and the person running business is usually the owner only.
