Did Nordstrom’s liquidity improve or worsen during the year? |
|
Working capital = total current assets - total current liabilities
current ratio = total current assets/total current liabilities
(1)
at the beginning of the year,
working capital = $3488 - $1600
= $1888
current ratio = $3488/$1600
= 2.18 times
(2)
at the end of the year,
working capital = $3408 - $1600
= $1808
current ratio = $3408/$1600
= 2.13 times
(3)
Nordstrom’s liquidity worsened during the year, because of the decrease in working capital and current ratio.
