D : readily convertible and very close to their maturity dates.

Explanation:

Cash equivalents are current liquid assets and comprise cash in hand,  cash at the bank, and short term investment whose maturity is in three months or less. A company's total value of cash and cash equivalents is recorded at the top line of the balance sheet as a current asset. They are the most liquid asset of a company.

For an asset to be classified as a cash equivalent, it must have the ability to convert to cash easily. Its value should be relatively stable and be determined with ease. Cash equivalents indicate the financial strengths of a business and its ability to offset the current liabilities.
