Explanation / Answer

1.

Current ratio=Current assets/Current liabilities

Current liabilities=(6million/3)=$2million

Quick ratio=(Current assets-inventory)/Current liabilities

1.8=(6million-inventory)/2million

(1.8*2)=6-inventory

inventory=6-3.6

=$2.4million

=$2,400,000

2.

Average collection period=365/AR turnover

=(365/10)

=36.5 days

3.

Ending retained earnings=Beginning retained earnings+Net income-Dividends

20=15+7-Dividends

Dividends=(15+7-20)

=$2mm(A).
