Computation Interpretation—what does the result mean?
Compute: a. Working capital: ___________________ __________________________________
b. Current ratio: ___________________ __________________________________
c. Quick ratio: ___________________ __________________________________
(a)-Working Capital
Working Capital = Total current assets – Total current liabilities
= [Cash + short-term, investments + Prepaid insurance + Inventory + Accounts receivables] – [Accounts payables + Accrued liabilities + Salaries payable]
= [$543,000 + $826,000 + $70,000 + $1,625,000 + $117,000] – [$902,000 + $526,000 + $165,000]
= $3,181,000 - $1,593,000
= $1,588,000
(b)-Current Ratio
Current Ratio = Total current assets / Total current liabilities
= [Cash + short-term, investments + Prepaid insurance + Inventory + Accounts receivables] / [Accounts payables + Accrued liabilities + Salaries payable]
= [$543,000 + $826,000 + $70,000 + $1,625,000 + $117,000] / [$902,000 + $526,000 + $165,000]
= $3,181,000 / $1,593,000
= 2.00 Times
(c)-Quick Ratio
Quick Ratio = [Total current assets – Inventory – Prepaid Insurance] / Total current liabilities
= [$3,181,000 - $1,625,000 - $70,000] / $1,593,000
= $1,486,000 / $1,593,000
= 0.93 Times
