This validates the first hypothesis; the independent variables Current Ratio(x1), Quick Ratio(x2), and Liquidity(x3) have a significant effect on the dependent variables Return on Equity (Y1), There is a positive significant effect on the construct of the independent variables, Current Ratio (x1), Quick Ratio (x2), and Liquidity (x3) on the construct of the dependent variables in terms of Earning Assets (Asset Quality) (Y3), probability level less than (0.001). This validates of the third hypothesis; the independent variables in terms of Current Ratio (x1), Quick Ratio (x2), and Liquidity (x3) have a significant effect on (Earning Assets) Asset Quality (Y3).
