this is one of CMA Practice Questions Book

 

Answer is  >>>  C  :  be lower than2.3 times.

 

Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities .

 

then EXAMPLE WILL BE    (8 /3.4783 ) This is for explanation =  2.3

 

Purchasing on Credit

debit   /  inventory (Goods) for sale     10 $  <<<  increase Current Assets

credit / Accounts Payable                       10$ <<<   increase Current Liabilities

let us examine our first example  =  (8 +10) = 18 / (3.4783+10) = 13.4783

 

it will be  = 1.3355 << less than 2.3
