Answer 1

Answer:

The value of the net working capital to total assets ratio is 0.5067≅0.51

Explanation:

Given Data:

Accounts payable =$2,214

Inventory= $7,950

Cash=$1,263

Fixed Asset=$8,400

Accounts receivable=$3,907

Long-term debt=$4,200

Required:

The value of the net working capital to total assets ratio=?

Solution:

Net working Capital=Inventory+Cash+Accounts receivable-Accounts payable

Net working Capital= $7,950+$1,263+$3,907-$2,214

Net working Capital= $10,906.

Total assets=Inventory+Cash+Accounts receivable+ Fixed assets

Total assets= $7,950+$1,263+$3,907+$8,400

Total assets=$21,520

Ratio=$\frac{Net\ working\ Capital}{Total\ assets}$

$Ratio=\frac{\ 10,906}{\ 21,520} \\Ratio=0.5067$

The value of the net working capital to total assets ratio is 0.5067≅0.51.
