Answer 1

Cash and Cash Equivalent reported on the balance sheet $15,576

Step-by-step explanation:

Cash in a checking​ account, $9,000

Cash in a savings​ account, $3000​

Highminusgrade government securities due in one month​ (purchased last​ month) $3576

Accounts​ receivable $3,000

Cash and Cash Equivalent = Cash in a checking​ account + Cash in a savings​ account + Highminusgrade government securities due in one month​ (purchased last​ month)

Cash and Cash Equivalent = $9,000 + $3,000 + $3,576

Cash and Cash Equivalent = $15,576
