What does this template do?
Calculate current assets, net working capital, current ratio, and quick ratio across periods or operating units.
Current assets sums cash, receivables, and inventory. Net working capital subtracts current liabilities, current ratio divides current assets by current liabilities, and quick ratio excludes inventory.
Balance-sheet inputs must share one reporting date and currency. Prepaid expenses and short-term marketable securities should be grouped consistently if present.
The working tab keeps editable inputs separate from formulas, with 6 populated sample rows, summary KPIs, an in-cell scale bar, and room for 60 records. The Notes tab explains the method and how to extend the range. All example records are fictional and can be replaced. Download a workbook format to retain formulas, or CSV when you need calculated values only.
