Req. 4

Current / = / Current Assets / = / $19,750+$1,000 / = / $20,750 / = / 10.92
Ratio / Current Liabilities / $1,900 / $1,900

This ratio indicates that, for every $1 of current liabilities, Delta maintains $10.92 of current assets. Delta’s ratio is higher than the industry average of 4.50, indicating that Deltamaintains a lower level of short-term debt and has higher liquidity. However, maintaining such a high current ratio also suggests that the company may not be using its resources efficiently. Increasing short-term obligations would lower Delta’s current ratio, but this strategy alone would not help its efficiency. Delta should consider investing more of its cash in order to generate future returns.
