Exhibit 4.1 The balance sheet and income statement shown below are for Koski Inc. Note that the firm has no amortization charges

yuradex [85]

Answer:

Koski Inc.

Quick Ratio:

Quick Ratio = (Current Assets - Inventory) divided by Current Liabilities

Quick Ratio = $(23,595 - 12,480) / $(17,160 -5,460)

Quick Ratio = 11,115 / 11,700 = 0.95

Explanation:

The quick ratio is a financial metric that shows the short-term liquidity position of a company. It measures the company's ability to settle its short-term obligations using its most liquid current assets. The most liquid assets are cash and near cash current assets.

Inventory is always removed in calculating the most liquid current assets. Inventory will take some time before it can be converted to cash or near cash, given the cash conversion cycle.

The quick ratio is also called the acid-test ratio. It is also considered as more conservative than the current ratio which measures the coverage of current liabilities by all current assets, including inventory.

In our workings, we eliminated inventory from current assets. We also eliminated notes payable which would be rolled over the next year.

C has a $100,000 traditional whole life insurance policy with a $30,000 cash surrender value. He applies for and receives a $10,

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

If C were disabled, his beneficiaries would receive $70,000, less any outstanding interest charges

Explanation:

Policy loans can generally amount up to 100% of the cash surrender value of the policy, in this case C only requested $10,000 (1/3 of the cash value). This type of loan is fully collateralized by the cash value of the policy and the borrower can even miss some payments or pay on a later date because interests keep adding.

This type of loan can carry a fixed or variable interest rate, depends on the insurer.

If C surrenders his policy, he will receive the total cash surrender value minus the loan amount = $30,000 - $10,000 = $20,000

If C dies, his beneficiaries would receive the full benefits minus the loan amount = $100,000 - $10,000 = $90,000
