Answer 1

$143,700

Step-by-step explanation:

Current assets in Sheridan Company's trial balance are;

Accounts receivable (net) = $37,000

Trading securities = $11,500

Cash = $33,000

Inventory = $58,500

Prepaid expenses = $3,700

Total current assets = $37,000 + $11,500 + $33,000 + $58,500 + $3,700

= $143,700
