Answer 1

Answer:

Liquidity ratios measure (C) the extent of a firm's financing with debt relative to entity.

Explanation:

Liquidity ratio is used in determining a company's ability to pay off all the current debts without taking or raising any external capital. It measures the company's ability whether the company is able to pay their debts or not through the calculation of "CURRENT RATIO" (It tells the investors how they can maximize the assets to satisfy their current debts), "QUICK RATIO" (It shows the company's ability to use it cash/assets and pay off its current debts. It is also known as acid test ratio) and "OPERATING CASH FLOW RATIO" (this helps in measuring how much the current debts can be paid off by the cash flow which is generated by the company's operation).
