Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation
given that acid test ratio is:

\(\frac {\text{Current assets – stock}}{\text{Current liabilities}}\)

Current assets:\(\frac {\text{stock + Debtors + bank – stock}}{\text{Current liabilities}}\)

\(\frac{11250 + 18750 + 4000 – 11250}{3750}\)

= 34000 – 11250 = 22750 = 6:1:1
