Answer:

1.20 times and 1.50 times

Explanation:

The computation of the quick ratio is shown below:

Quick ratio = Quick assets ÷ Current liabilities

Particulars                        Current year               Last year

Quick Assets:  

Cash                           $650                         $680

Temporary Investments  $1,500                         $1,550

Accounts receivable   $700                         $770

Quick Assets                   $2,850                         $3,000

Current Liabilities  

Accounts Payable            $2,375                         $2,000

Current Liabilities            $2,375                          $2,000

So, Quick Ratio             1.20 times                  1.50 times

By dividing the quick assets with the current liabilities we can get the quick ratio
