Current Ratio = Current Asset / Current Liabilities
= (Cash + Shortminusterm Investments + Net accounts receivable + Inventory) / Current Liabilities

= 1.21
Answer: $220,000
Explanation:
Using the Accrual Method of Accounting means that revenue is only to be recorded when it is earned i.e. when services have been delivered.
Any revenue received when the services have not been delivered will be recorded as Unearned Revenue.
With $528,000 in subscription revenue, the monthly subscription is;
= 528,000/12
= $44,000
From June to December would be 7 months so they would have earned;
= 44,000 * 7
= $308,000
The amount that they have not earned but have received would therefore be;
= 528,000 - 308,000
= $220,000
<em>This amount will be recorded after they finish deliveries of magazines in next year May. </em>
Gaining a profit from sold goods is helpful because the use of scarce resources is optimized. It also provide jobs. The bad side of being in a profit motive business is that some may be tempted to deal with customers . I think that a profit motive business is a good thing.
