A quick ratio is something used in financial accounting. It is equal to your quick assets (cash and accounts receivable) divided by your current liabilities. If it is greater than 1.0 then your financial statements are looking good because you have more assets than liabilities and are therefore (hopefully) making revenue. If it is less than 1.0 than your liabilities outweigh your assets and your business could be headed for failure.
