Expert Answer
| Answer a | ||||||||
| Current ratio = Current assets / Current Liabilities | ||||||||
| Current assets = Cash + Receivables + Inventory = $41400+$68900+$102500 = $212800 | ||||||||
| Current Liabilities = Accounts Payable = $77500 | ||||||||
| Current ratio = $212800/$77500 = 2.75 times | ||||||||
| Answer b | ||||||||
| Acid test ratio = Liquid current assets / Current liabilities | ||||||||
| Liquid Current assets = Cash + Receivables = $41400+$68900 = $110300 | ||||||||
| Acid test ratio = $110300/$77500 = 1.42 times | ||||||||
| Answer c | ||||||||
| Debt to assets ratio = Total Liabilities / Total assets | ||||||||
| Total Liabilities = Accounts Payable + Mortgage payable = $77500+$128000 = $205500 | ||||||||
| Total assets = $432800 | ||||||||
| Debt to assets ratio = $205500/$432800 = 47.48% | ||||||||
| Answer d | ||||||||
| Return on assets = Net Income / Average total assets | ||||||||
| Return on assets = $26600 / $432800 = 6.15% | ||||||||
