Answer:

$82,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Current Assets are assets of a short term nature that exists in the business for a period not exceeding 12 months.

The current asset section

Inventory $40,000

Investment $30,000

Account receivable $12,000

Total $82,000

Therefore

The current asset section of Janson's December 31, 2013, balance sheet would show a total of $82,000
