(Round your intermediate calculations to1 decimal place.) References 1. Working capital 2. Acid-test ratio 3a. Effect on working capital 3b. Effect on current ratio

Explanation / Answer

Current ratio of 2 means current assets are 2 times or double the current liabilities.

So If current assets = total assets - fixed assets =*3019000- 1830000= 1189000$

Current liabilities = 1189000/2= 594500$

Working capital = 1189000- 594500= 594500$

2. Acid test ratio =( current assets- inventory - prepaid expenses) /CL= 441000/594500= 0.742

Ans 2.

Payment of accounts payable reduces current liability by 48000$.

Working capital = 1189000 - 594500 - 48000 = 546500$

Acid test ratio = 441000/546500= 0.8069$
