 == What is Current Ratio ==
+The '''current ratio''' is a financial ratio that measures a company's ability to pay its short-term debts using its current assets. It is calculated by dividing a company's current assets by its current liabilities.
 Current assets are assets that are expected to be converted into cash or used up within one year or less. Examples of current assets include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and inventory. Current liabilities are debts that are due within one year or less. Examples of current liabilities include accounts payable and short-term loans.
