total current assets:
| Average collection period = ( Accounts receivable / Credit sales ) * Days in a year | |
| 36 = ( Accounts receivable / 371000 ) * 360 | |
| Accounts receivable = 36 * 371000 / 360 = | 37100 | 
| Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities | |
| 2 = Current assets / 62000 | |
| Current assets = 2 * 62000 = | 124000 | 
| Inventory turnover = Sales / Inventory | |
| 7 = 371000 / Inventory | |
| Inventory = 371000 / 7 = | 53000 | 
| Cash = Total current assets - Accounts receivable - Inventory = 124000 - 37100 - 53000 = | 33900 |
