    LC'ers, and more specifically accounting students, just wondering would any of you have the time to quickly put up the formulae for some of the ratios that appear in this question. I ask because I've a mid-term in an accounting module in college next week(module is easier than LC higher level, and Ord. level mostly too), but the notes of my lecturer aren't good. Would need them kinda like how ya write them out, or else if its something divided by another, just the forward slash(/) will do. Would be very grateful.

    Main ones needed are: Crrent Ratio, Acid-Test/Quick ratio, dividend per share, dividend cover ratio, earnings per share.

    If someone had some of the others too, it'd be great.

    Is it only Shareholder or Debenture they can ask you in the theory of Ratios?

    They can ask for banks as well. For example, would a bank grant a loan etc.
