  2. Add both the financial data for your assets as well as your liabilities for each year, entering your latest results at the end.

How to Calculate Your Current Ratio

To calculate your current ratio, simply take your current asset value and divide it by the value of your current liabilities.

Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

What Can Current Ratios Be Used For?

Current Ratios are used to find out whether or not a company is performing at either its best or its worst.

The most effective use of current ratios is when they are compared against historical data. As shown by our current ratio calculator, this will usually be the year-on-year comparison. Most corporations tend to keep a record of their current ratios on either a monthly or quarterly basis.
