Answer of Part 1:
Current Assets = Cash + Short term Investments + Accounts
Receivable + Inventory
Current Assets = $200 + $150 + $200 + $350
Current Assets = $900
Current Liabilities = $400
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
Current Ratio = $900 / $400
Current Ratio = 2.25
Answer of Part 2:
Acid Test Ratio = (Current Assets – Inventory) / Current
Liabilities
Acid Test Ratio = ($900 - $350) / $400
Acid Test Ratio = $550 / $400
Acid Test Ratio = 1.375
Answer of Part 3:
Equity = Paid in Capital + Retained Earnings
Equity = $750 + $400
Equity = $1,150
Total Liabilities = Current Liabilities + Long term
Liabilities
Total Liabilities = $400 + $350
Total Liabilities = = $750
Debt to Equity Ratio = Total Liabilities / Total Equity
Debt to Equity Ratio = $750 / $1,150
Debt to Equity Ratio= 0.65
Answer of Part 4:
EBIT = Net Income + Income Tax Expense + Interest Expense
EBIT = $160 + $100 + $40
EBIT = $300
Times Interest Earned Ratio = EBIT / Interest Expense
Times Interest Earned Ratio = $300 / $40
Times Interest Earned Ratio = 7.5 times
