liquidity position - Details


  • Key Concepts: Liquidity position is a term used in SAP's FS-LRM Liquidity and Risk Management component. It is a measure of the amount of cash and other liquid assets that a company has available to meet its short-term obligations. It is calculated by subtracting the company's current liabilities from its current assets.
    How to use it: The liquidity position can be used to assess the financial health of a company. A positive liquidity position indicates that the company has enough cash and liquid assets to cover its short-term obligations, while a negative liquidity position indicates that the company does not have enough cash and liquid assets to cover its short-term obligations.
    Tips & Tricks: It is important to note that the liquidity position does not take into account any long-term liabilities or assets, such as loans or investments. Therefore, it is important to consider other factors when assessing the financial health of a company.
    Related Information: The liquidity position can be used in conjunction with other financial metrics, such as the current ratio and quick ratio, to get a more comprehensive view of a company's financial health. Additionally, it can be used to compare the liquidity positions of different companies in order to identify potential investment opportunities.
