The current asset section of the Excalibur Tire Company’s balance sheet consists of cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, and inventory. The December 31, 2021, balance sheet revealed the following: Inventory $ 1,000,000 Total assets $ 4,000,000 Current ratio 2.20 Acid-test ratio 1.40 Debt to equity ratio 1.5 Determine the following 2021 balance sheet items:
a. Current Assets?
b. Shareholder's Equity?
c. Long-term assets?
d. Long-term liabilities?
Working :
Current asset ratio = Current asset /current liabilities
2.20 =CA/CL
CA =2.20 CL [Equation 1 ]
Now,
Acid-test ratio = [Current asset -inventory ]/current liabilities
1.40 = [CA - 1,000,000]/CL
1.40 CL = [CA-1,000,000]
putting the value of CA from equation 1
1.40 CL = [2.20CL -1,000,000]
2.20 CL -1.40CL = 1000000
.80 CL = 1,000,000
CL = 1,000,000/.80
= 1,250,000
a)Current asset = 2.20* 1,250,000
= $ 2,750,000
b)Debt to equity ratio = Total debt /total equity
1.5 =TD /TE
TD = 1.5 TE
Nowusing accounting equation
Total asset =Total debt +total equity
4,000,000 = 1.5 TE +TE
4,000,000 = 2.5 TE
TE = 4,000,000 /2.5
= 1,600,000
Total equity = $ 1,600,000
Shareholder's Equity = 1,600,000
c)Long term assets = Total asset - current asset
= 4,000,000 - 2,750,000
= 1,250,000
d)Total asset =Total debt +total equity
4,000,000 = Ttal debt + 1,600,000
Toal debt = 4000000-1600000
= 2400000
Long term liabilities = Total debt -current liabilities
= 2400000- 1,250,000
= $ 1150000
