M13-9 Inferring Financial Information Using the Current Ratio [LO 13-4] Mystic Laboratories reported total assets of $10,500,000

zaharov [31]

Answer: $6,410,000

Explanation:

The current ratio calculates the ability of a company to meet its short term liabilities.

A current ratio greater than 1 indicates that a company is more able to meet its short term obligations. Mystic Laboratories with a current ratio of 1.3 has a greater ability to meet its short term obligations.

Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities

Total assets = current assets + non current assets

$10,500,000 = current assets + $2,167,000

Current assets = $8,333,000

1.3 = $8,333,000 / current liabilities

Current liabilites = $6,410,000

Because of that, the answer is that the statement is false.

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

$62,800

Explanation:

Following Garfield Corp's policy, the number of pet beds that must be purchased, assuming no initial inventory, is given by the expected number of sales in March (1,300 units) added to 30% of the expected sales in April (30% of 900 units):

$n=1,300 +(0.3*900)\\n=1,570\ units$

Since the company purchases each pet bed for $40, total budgeted purchases are:

$P=\$40*n=\$40*1,570\\P=\$62,800$

Garfield Corp's total budgeted purchases for March are $62,800.
