(i) Purchase of loose tools for ₹2,000; (ii) Insurance premium paid in advance ₹500; (iii) Sale of goods on credit ₹3,000; (iv) Honoured a bills payable of ₹5,000 on maturity.

Short Note

Solution

Transaction Impact
Purchase of loose tools Rs 2,000 As cash is going out, quick assets are decreasing by 2,000. So, quick ratio will decrease.
Insurance premium paid in advance Rs 500 As cash is going out, quick assets are decreasing by 500. So, quick ratio will decrease.
Sale of goods on credit Rs 3,000 As debtors increase, quick assets also increase by 3,000. So, quick ratio will increase.
Honoured a bills payable Rs 5,000 on maturity As cash is going out, quick assets are decreasing by 5,000 and since bill is honoured current liabilities are decreasing. Thus, quick ratio will decrease.
