The doomsday ratio only considers the cash on hand when evaluating if an entity can cover their current liabilities.

The ratio is considered a good indicator of the cash cushion of safety. It may spot cash shortages, thereby assisting in avoiding a credit crisis. It is calculated: Cash divided by Current Liabilities.
