Correct answer: B) 0.70:1

Explanation

Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities = $2.1m / $3.0m = 0.70:1. Inverting the formula gives 1.43:1. A ratio below 1, combined with an overdraft awaiting renewal, is an indicator that the auditor should consider in assessing going concern under ISA 570.
