  • C. They have sufficient quick assets to pay off short-term debt if needed.

The Acid-test and current ratios are used to measure the liquidity of a company with higher figures meaning more liquidity. XYZ Company has a both a higher acid-test and current ratio so they are more liquid than others in their industry.
