HELP PLEASE HURRY!!!! Is it fair to restrict people's ability to work based on their age? Why or why not? Justify your answer.
7nadin3 [17]
Yes, it is fair. Younger people (Below 18) need to focus more on school. Work can take their attention off of school. And without school they wont be able to get a better job. Plus younger people can only work part time due to child labor. Most workers below 18 also have parents  that's job is to feed and care for them, which means they do not even need to work until they are over 18. most people that work under the age of 18 is just for the fact of having money, not because they need it to live.

The balance sheet of Crimpson Solutions Ltd. has cash of $125 million, accounts receivable of $245 million, inventory of $160 mi
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The Crimpson's current ratio is 1.32 times

Explanation:

Current Ratio: The current ratio is that ratio which meet short term liquidity. It comprises of two things i.e Current assets and current liabilities.

Current assets is that assets which are converted into cash in less than one year. It includes stock, accounts receivables, cash, etc

Current liabilities is that liabilities which are payable in less than one year. It includes creditors, accounts payable etc

Current ratio = current assets ÷ current liabilities

where,

current assets is equals to

= Cash + accounts receivable + inventory

= $125 + $245 + $160

= $530 million

And, current liabilities equals to

= Accounts payable + notes payable

= $120 + $280

= $400 million

We assume notes payable is less than 12 months so, we include in current liabilities

Now put these values over the above formula.

So, the current ratio = $530 ÷ $400 = 1.32 times

Hence, Crimpson's current ratio is 1.32 times
