Answer:

Decreased

Explanation:

Liquidity or current ratio =  Current Assets / Current liabilities

If the current asset has been decreased and the current liabilities has been increased then the answer would be higher than before.

The current ratio tells the same and the only difference written above and in current ratio is that the above mentioned Answer is conceptual based whereas current ratio uses numerical values of current assets and current liabilities written in the balance sheet.

Current ratio tells us that whether or not the company is able to meet its short term liabilities (Current Liabilities) using its short term asset (Current Assets).

Remember that the current assets are the assets that are convertible to cash within next 12 months. Whereas current liabilities are the liabilities which we have to pay in cash within the next 12 months.

If the interest rate on a savings account is 0.018%, approximately how much money do you need to keep in this account for 1 year
d1i1m1o1n [39]
The answer to this question would be: <span>A. $55,555
</span>In this question, the interest rate is 0.018% and you need to have $9.99 interest. That mean, you need to divide the target interest value with the current interest rate. The equation should be:

interest = bank account * interest rate
$9.99 = bank account * 0.018%
bank account = $9.99/ 0.018%   (don't forget the % mean 1/100)
bank account = $55,500

If we assume that the $9.99 value is $9.99... then the answer would be $55,555
