Explanation / Answer

Working capital = Current assets - Current liabilities Current assets = 75000+14500+362000+473000+11500 = $936000 Current liabilities = 209000+64500+110000 = $383500 Working capital = 936000-383500 = $552500 Current Ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities Current assets = 75000+14500+362000+473000+11500 = $936000 Current liabilities = 209000+64500+110000 = $383500 Current Ratio = 936000/383500 = 2.44 Acid Test ratio = Quick assets / current liabilities Quick assets = Current assets - inventories-prepaid exp = 936000-473000-11500 = $451500 Current liabilities = 209000+64500+110000 = $383500 Acid Test ratio = $451500/$383500 = 1.18
