Explanation / Answer

Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities

Current assets = cash + Marketable securities + Accounts receivable + Inventories+ Prepaid expense and other

2011 =35,361 + 408,886 + 231,748 + 15,793 = 521799

2012= 38,927 + 202,540 + 389,908 + 198,011 + 15,793 = 455271

Current liabilities = Accounts payable + Accrued compensation and related liabilities + Accrued liabilities + Accrued tax liability + Long-term debt due within one year

2011 = 64,623 + 70,773 + 263,521 + 2,561 + 4,156 = 405634

2012= 71,653 + 95,381 + 239,076 + 26,665 = 432775

current assets (2011) = 521799/405634 = 1.28

current assets (2012) = 455271/432775 = 1.05

Inventory turnover ratio = cost of goods sold /average inventory

= $1,515,815/214879.5 = 7 times

where average inventory = inventory at beginning + inventory at end / 2

= 231,748 + 198,011 / 2 = 214879.5

Accounts receivable turnover ratio = Credit sales / average Accounts receivable

= $3,708,000 / 399397

= 9 times

where average Accounts receivable = Accounts receivable at beginning + Accounts receivable at end / 2

= 408,886 + 389,908

= 399397
