Answer 1

Answer: $308,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Current Assets:

Cash 29,000

Accounts receivable (net) 126,000

Raw materials 33,000

Notes receivable 109,000

Interest receivable 12,000

Investment in debt securities 41, 000

Work in process 51,000

Finished goods 98,000

Prepaid rent 34,500

Total $‭533,500‬

Accounts receivable (net) = Accounts receivable - Allowance for uncollectible accounts

= 148,000 - 22,000

= $126,000

Prepaid rent is for 2 years:

= 69,000 / 2

= $34,500

Current Liabilities

Interest Payable 14,000

Deferred revenue 22,500

Accounts Payable 189,000

Total $225,500

Deferred revenue is to be recognized over 2 years = 45,000 / 2

= $22,500

Working Capital = 533,500 - 225,500

= $308,000
