Answer:

The maximum that should be expand short time debts  and inventories is $ 1,666,667.

Explanation:

First the amount of current liabilities must be known:

Current Ratio = Current Asset / Current Liabilities  

3 = 15,000,000 / X  

X = 15,000,000 / 3

X= 5,000,000

To know how much to expand short time debts  and inventories in the formula of the current ratio, to the amount of current assets and current liabilities must add an amount such that the result is 2.5.  

(15,000,000 + x) / (5,000,000 + x) = 2.5

(15,000,000 + x) = 2.5 * (5,000,000 + x)

 15,000,000 + x = (2.5 * 5,000,000) + (2.5 x)

 15,000,000 + x = 12,500,000 + 2.5 x

 15,000,000 - 12,500,000 = 2.5 x – x

  2,500,000 / 1.5  = x

  1,666,667 = x

 So the maximum that should be expand short time debts  and inventories is $ 1,666,667.

The answer should be B) Online Conversation.

Why is it B) U may ask? Its B) because Wikipedia is a site with false answers because ANYBODY, I mean ANYBODY, can just edit it themselves with probably true information, or even MORE likely false because anybody can change the stuff on there.

You have the following information on Marco's Polo Shop: total liabilities and equity = $210 million; current liabilities = $50
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

$60 million

Explanation:

The quick ratio is  the financial ratio of the current assets less inventory to current liabilities. While the accounting equation shows the relationship between the elements of a balance sheet which are assets liabilities and equity.

This may be expressed mathematically as

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Given that quick ration is 1.7 and current liabilities = $50 million

1.7 = current assets less inventory/$50 million

current assets less inventory = 1.7 * $50 million

= $85 million

The total asset is made up of the current assets less inventory, inventory, fixed assets. Let the balance for fixed assets be y

$85 + $65 + y = $210   (all amounts in millions)

y = $210 - $150   (all amounts in millions)

y = $60   (all amounts in millions)

Which program provides lump-sum compensation and health benefits for eligible Department of Energy nuclear weapons workers injur
pickupchik [31]

Answer: Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program (EECICP)

Explanation:

Much like private companies, the Federal government is also required to insure its workers and this is regulated under the Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP). There are several compensation programs but the relevant one here is the EECICP.

The EECICP is for federal employees in the Department of Energy as well as agencies related to them. This also includes contractors and subcontractors. Under this program, eligible workers who got injured are entitled to a lump-sum compensation as well as health benefits. If the worker dies as a result of the injuries however, a lump-sum might go to their survivors instead.
