Hello. Would you include short term investments as part of current assets? They are sort of liquid in the sense that they could be sold at any time (they are classified as available for sale). I guess you could make the case that even assets like bonds are fairly liquid and they are carried at market value on the balance sheet.

The other issue is that there are reserve ratios that must be kept at a certain level. We receive money up front from customers and that goes as an unearned premium liability. I'm trying to figure out what assets I should use to calculate such ratios as the quick ratio etc.

If the short term investments can be sold at any time then they are current assets.
