Glenn Murphy, is the current Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer of the Gap Inc.The Gap Inc has a slight weaker current ratio in comparison with the industry but it gives a strong and positive signal to the creditors. The current ratio of Gap Inc is higher than Best Buy. This ratio suggests that the company do not have reserve cash or liquid assets and Gap Inc uses more of a tentative approach in utilizing the excess or reserve cash on their ongoing business. Gap Inc has a fair quick ratio with respect to the current liabilities. It suggests that the company utilizes their resources in efficiently and they do not have a liquidity problem.
However, the Gap Inc. ’s management is taking prompt steps to increase the quick ratio in comparison with the industry trend. In order to repay its debt to the debt holders the Gap Inc has a tendency to take more debt from the debt holders for their future operations, if required. Best Buy, on the other hand, takes the initiative of increasing Cash reserves primarily because of sale of investments and also proceeds from issuance of debt which impacts the current ratio.
