Debt Equity ratio = Total liabilities/Equity
                  .8         = Total Liabilities/350000                  
Total Liabilities     = 350000*.8
Total Liabilities     = 280000

Total liabilities + shareholder’s Equity = Total assets
280000+350000                                       =(110000+22000+18000+422000+Accounts Receivable)
Accounts Receivables                             = 58000

Current Ratio        = Current Assets/Current Liabilities
                 1.6          = (110000+58000+22000+18000)/Current liabilities
Current Liabilities = 208000/1.6
                                 = 130000
    

Acid test ratio = (Cash + Account receivables + short term Investment)/Current Liabilities
                            = (110000+58000+22000)/130000
                            = 1.46
