Answer:

The current ratio is 1.18 times

Explanation:

Current Ratio: The current ratio is that ratio which shows a relationship between the current assets and the current liabilities

The computation of the current ratio is shown below

Current ratio = Total Current assets ÷ total current liabilities

where,

Total current assets = Cash + short-term investments + net accounts receivable + merchandise inventory

=  $43,500 + $27,000 + $102,000 + $125,000

= $297,500

And, the total current liabilities is $251,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the ratio would equal to

= $297,500 ÷ $251,000

= 1.18 times

The long term note payable is not a current liabilities,hence it is not considered in the computation part.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

4%

Explanation:

Interest included in $918000 is for six months from 10/1/18 to 4/1/12.

Interest for first three month period from 10/1/18 to 31/12/18 = $9000.

This implies that :

Interest from 1/1/19 to 4/1/19 = $9000.

Principal amount excluding interest due:

= Baker's obligation amount - Accrued interest - Accrued interest

= $918,000 - $9,000 - $9,000

= $900,000

Interest rate:

= [($9,000 × 12/3) ÷ 900000] × 100

= 4%
