Expert Answer
Total current assets=(Cash+Accounts receivable+Inventories+PRepaid insurance)
=($66000+$50000+$56000+26000)=$198000
Total current liabilities=(Accounts payable+Interest payable+Current portion of notes payable_)(Current portion of notes payable is the balance in next 12 months=($120,000/10)=$12000)
=($17500+7500+12000)=$37000
Hence
1.Current ratio=Current assets/Current liabilities
=($198000/$37000)=5.35(Approx)
2.Acid test ratio=(Current assets-inventory-prepaid expenses)/Current liabilities
=($198000-56000-26000)/37000=3.14(Approx).
3.
Total debt=(Interest payable+Accounts payable+Notes payable)’
=($17500+$7500+120,000)=145000
total equity=(Common stock+Retained earnings_)
=($81000+78000)=$159000
Hence Debt to equity ratio=Debt/Equity
=(145000/159000)
=0.91(Approx).
