Explanation / Answer

1.a.

Working capital = Current assets – Current liabilities

                           = (Cash + Marketable securities + Accounts receivable + Inventory + Prepaid expenses) – (Accounts payable + Notes + Accrued liabilities)

                           = (69,000 + 25,900 + 347,600 + 457,400 + 7,800) – (198,200 + 98,000 + 59,100)

                           = 907,700 – 355,300

                           = $552,400

1.b.

Current ratio = (Current assets) / (Current liabilities)

                      = 907,700 / 355,300

                      = 2.55

1.c.

Acid-test ratio = (Current assets – Inventory - Prepaid expenses) / Current liabilities

                        = (907,700 – 457,400 - 7,800) / 355,300

                        = 442,500 / 355,300

                        = 1.25
