I.

We can say that East Coast Yachts has its current liabilities covered 0.749 times. We believe this is not so good, since the aim of this company is selling Yachts to clients, and the most assets the have are coming from net Plant and Equipment, not the Cash.
b. Quick Ratio for East Coast Yachts is 0.435 times which lies between the Median (0.38 times) and Upper Quartile (0.62 times). We believe it is pretty good, because the impact of inventory at East Coast Yachts is not much. Also, we can see at table that at the Upper Quartile, the differences between Current Ratio and Quick Ratio for Yachts Industry is much. We can generally said that the Assets of other company, in average, which focusing in Yachts Industry is pretty much coming from Inventory (which is not good, since it might come from overestimated sales and overbrought or overproduced of Yachts).
