Liquidity ratio may refer to:

- Quick ratio (also known as an acid test) or current ratio, accounting ratios used to determine the liquidity of a business entity
In accounting, the liquidity ratio expresses a company's ability to repay short-term creditors out of its total cash. It is the result of dividing the total cash by short-term borrowings. It shows the number of times short-term liabilities are covered by cash. If the value is greater than 1.00, it means fully covered.
The formula is the following:
LR = liquid assets / short-term liabilities
Liquidity ratios measure how quickly assets can be turned into cash in order to pay the company's short-term obligations. Following ratios can be considered to measure the liquidity of a firm.
