    Xena has the following working capital ratios:

    20X9 20X8

    Current ratio 1:2:1 1:5:1

    Receivables days 75 50

    Payables days 30 45

    Inventory turnover 42 35

    Which of the following statements is true?

    Correct analysis: Xena is suffering from a worsening liquidity position in accounting year 20X9.

    Confusion: How do I compare current ratios in this question? Is 1:2:1 less than 1:5:1 or more?

    I don’t know which book you are using, but the ratios should be typed as 1.2:1 and 1.5:1, which means ratios of 1.2 and 1.5.

    1.2 is lower than 1.5.
