The current ratio is a measure of a contractor's ability to pay its current liabilities with its current assets. The formula for calculating the current ratio is current assets divided by current liabilities. If a contractor has a low current ratio, it can lead to credit difficulties; however, a high current ratio may indicate inefficient use of working capital if it means that cash is sitting in a bank earning low interest rather than being invested at a better rate.
