If I’m comparing two companies as to which one will go bankrupt first, what simple parameters can be used to determine this (or at least give an educated guess)?
Amount of money in the bank; income and outgo? (this is my guess)
Simply add the income and amount in the bank then subtract out the rate of outgo until they reach zero?
Also, I can’t ask the companies directly, how much they have in the bank or what their income and outgo is/are. But do you think I can get by if I ask them the ratio of income to outgo?
The reasoning behind this is that I’m looking at making a move to a different company and want to make sure I don’t jump from one sinking ship into another. Ultimately, my real question is how can I know or guess which company is more stable (assuming they offer me a job and I can ask these pointed questions)
