Question

Klingon Widgets, Inc., purchased new cloaking machinery three years ago for $15 million. The machinery can be sold to the Romulans today for $14.1 million. Klingon’s current balance sheet shows net fixed assets of $12 million, current liabilities of $860,000, and net working capital of $224,000. If all the current assets and current liabilities were liquidated today, the company would receive $1.06 million cash. a. What is the book value of Klingon’s total assets today

Answer 1

Answer: $13,084,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Cost of new cloaking machinery = $15 million

Machinery can be sold to the Romulans today = $14.1 million

Net fixed assets = $12 million

Current liabilities = $860,000

Net working capital = $224,000

Net working capital = Current assets - Current liabilities

$224,000 = Current assets - $860,000

Current assets = $1,084,000

Therefore, book value of current assets is $1,084,000.

Book value of total assets = Book value of net fixed assets + Book Value of Current assets

= 12,000,000 + 1,084,000

= $13,084,000
