参考答案：C
解析：
A firm’s tolerance for additional debt can be measured by its capacity to repay debt. Retained cash flow divided by total debt is one of several measures that can be used. Operational efficiency refers to the firm’ s cost structure and can be measured by the "margin" ratios. EBITDA divided by sales is one version of an operating margin ratio. The current ratio is a measure of short-term liquidity.
