Round your answers to one decimal place. a. Current ratio fill in the blank 1 b. Quick ratio fill in the blank 2

Answer 1

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Current ration

= Current asset/Current liabilities

Current assets = Cash + Marketable securities + Accounts receivables + Inventory

= $210,000 + $120,000 + $110,000 + $160,000

= $600,000

Current liabilities = Accounts payable = $200,000

Current ratio = $600,000/$200,000

Current ratio = 3:1

2. Quick ratio

= Current assets - Inventory / Current liabilities

= ($600,000 - $160,000) / $200,000

= 2.2 : 1
