Answer

  1. CR= 1.40:1

  2. Cash Ratio = 0.26:1

  3. Acid Test Ratio= 0.70:1

  4. Inventory Turnover Ratio= 4.10 times

  5. Days sales in Inventory= 89 days

  6. Days sales in receivables= 58 days

  7. Gross Profit % =34.45%

Step by step solution

01

Current Ratio

Current Ratio = Current Assets/Current Liabilities

= $190,000/136,000

= 1.40:1

02

Cash Ratio

Cash Ratio= Cash & Cash Equivalent /Current Liabilities

Cash & Cash Equivalent = Cash + Short term investment

=$16,000+ $19,000

= $35,000/$136,000

Cash Ratio =0.26:1

03

Acid Test Ratio

Acid Test Ratio = Quick Assets/Current liabilities

Quick Assets: Total Current Assets- Prepaid Exp- Inventory

Quick Assets =$190,000 -$ 78,000 - $17,000

= $95,000

Acid Test Ratio = $95,000 / $136,000

Acid Test Ratio =0.70:1

04

Inventory Turnover Ratio

Inventory Turnover Ratio= Cost of Goods Sold/ Average Inventory.

Average Inventory = Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory / 2

=$78,000+ $74,000 /2

Average Inventory= $76,000

Inventory turnover ratio = $312,000/$76,000

= 4.10 times

05

Days Sales in Inventory

Days Sales in Inventory = No of Days in Year/ Inventory Turnover Ratio

=365 / 4.10

= 89 days

06

Days Sales in Receivable

Days Sales in Receivable = (Average Accounts Receivable / Total Credit Sales) x 365

Average Accounts Received = $60,000 + $92,000 / 2

= $76,000

Days Sales In Received = $76,000/ $476,000 x365

Days Sales In Received = 58 days

Gross Profit Percentage = (Gross Profit / Net Sales) x 100

Gross Profit = Sales- Cost of Goods Sold

= ($476.000 - $312,000)/$476,000

= 34.45 %
