operations. Because of this, ratios have been developed to take scale out of these numbers and allow comparisons
across farms of various sizes and types.
The current ratio, which is current assets divided by current liabilities, is commonly used to judge a business’s ability to
cash flow. It is recommended that this ratio be 2.0 or higher, with a larger ratio indicating a better overall ability to
meet cash obligations.
Another measure of liquidity is a working capital ratio where the difference between current assets and current
liabilities are divided by another measure. One way of computing this ratio is to compare working capital with the gross
revenues of the operation. A second method is to compare working capital with total operating expenses of the farm,
including interest. With this ratio, a larger number is better. Assessment of this ratio gives the producer an indication of
the percentage of annual operating expenses that can be covered with current working capital, before needing to either
turn some of the current year’s production to cash or to draw additional funds on a line of credit.
Table 1 shows the working capital, current ratio, working capital ratio and debt to asset ratio for KFMA members going
back to 2012. The current and working capital ratios peaked in 2013, while dollars of working capital peaked in 2014.
This followed several exceptionally profitable years for Kansas farms and ranches. The average farm during that period
could cover 92% of their current operating expenses with their current assets on hand at the beginning of the year.
