Step by step solution

Account receivable

$\begin{array}{rcl} Accounts receivable & = & \frac{Net credit sales}{Accounts receivable turnover ratio} \\ = & \frac{$ 1, 200, 000}{8} \\ = & $ 150, 000 \end{array}$

Total assets

$\begin{array}{rcl} Total assets & = & \frac{Sales}{Total asset turnover ratio} \\ = & \frac{$ 1, 200, 000}{2.4} \\ = & $ 500, 000 \end{array}$

Cash

$\begin{array}{rcl} Cash & = & Total assets \times Cash to total asset ratio \\ = & $ 500, 000 \times 2 % \\ = & $ 10, 000 \end{array}$

Inventory

$\begin{array}{rcl} Inventory & = & \frac{Sales}{Inventory turnover ratio} \\ = & \frac{$ 1, 200, 000}{10} \\ = & $ 120, 000 \end{array}$

Total current assets

$\begin{array}{rcl} Current assets & = & Cash + Accounts receivable + Inventory \\ = & $ 10, 000 + $ 150, 000 + $ 120, 000 \\ = & $ 280, 000 \end{array}$

Fixed assets

$\begin{array}{rcl} Fixed assets & = & Total assets - Current assets \\ = & $ 500, 000 - $ 280, 000 \\ = & $ 220, 000 \end{array}$

Current liabilities

$\begin{array}{rcl} Current liabilities & = & \frac{Current assets}{Current ratio} \\ = & \frac{$ 280, 000}{2} \\ = & $ 140, 000 \end{array}$

Total debts

$\begin{array}{rcl} Total debts & = & Total assets \times Debt to total assets \\ = & $ 500, 000 \times 61 % \\ = & $ 305, 000 \end{array}$

Long term debts

$\begin{array}{rcl} Long term debts & = & Total debts - Current debts \\ = & $305,000-$140,000 \\ = & $165,000 \end{array}$

Equity

$\begin{array}{rcl} Equity & = & Total debts and stockholder' s equity - Total debts \\ = & $ 500, 000 - $ 305, 000 \\ = & $ 195, 000 \end{array}$
