Hi Aman, 


the average daily expenditures comprise daily operating expenses that a company generates. 

The purpose of liquidity ratios is to evaluate a firm's liquidity position on an ongoing (daily, monthly) basis. 


Taxes are calculated at the year-end, based on accounting profits. Hence, they are not considered operating expenses and do not impact most liquidity ratios. 


I think this helps. Please let me know if you have any other concerns. 


Best,
