Liquidity is defined as the speed of the assets that will be converted into cash, assets that take less days to buy or sell are more liquid than others.

Cash is the most liquid asset, then Accounts Receivable and Inventories for the end, in the middle there are different assets such as capital investments.

Prepaid expenses are not liquid because these accounts do not mean that the company can get cash unless the company has rights to something.
