Answer:

3.50 and 0.90

Explanation:

Calculation for the current ratio and acid-test ratio for the boutique

Calculation of CURRENT RATIO

First step is to calculate the current assets and current liabilities

CURRENT ASSETS

Cash 52,000

Short-term investment 12,000

Accounts receivable 54,000

Inventory 325,000

Prepaid expenses 17,500

Total current assets $ 460,500

CURRENT LIABILITIES

Accounts payable$ 106,500

Other current payables $ 25,000

Total current liabilities $ 131,500

Using this formula

Current ratio=Current assets/Current Liabilities

Let plug in the formula

Current ratio=460,500/131,500

Current ratio=3.50

Therefore the Current ratio will be 3.50

Calculation for CURRENT ACID -TEST RATIO

Using this formula

Current acid-test ratio=Quick assets/Current Liabilities

Let plug in the formula

Current acid-test ratio=460,500-(325,000+17,500)/131,500

Current acid-test ratio=118,000/131,500

Current acid-test ratio=0.90

Therefore the Current acid-test ratio will be 0.90

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

For the Economist A the spending multiplier is = 8, the tax multiplier = 4, the increase in spending is = $4 billion, the tax cut is = $8 billion.

For the Economist B, the spending multiplier is =4, the tax multiplier = 2, the increase in spending is = $8 billion, the tax cut is = $16 billion.

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

(1)The Economist A

The Spending multiplier = 8

In closing the output gap of $32 billion, required increase in spending = $32 billion / 8 = $4 billion

Thus,

The tax multiplier = 4

To close output gap of $32 billion, required decrease in tax = $32 billion / 4 = $8 billion

(2)The Economist B

Now,

The spending multiplier = 4

To close output gap of $32 billion, required increase in spending = $32 billion / 4 = $8 billion

So,

Tax multiplier = 2

To close output gap of $32 billion, required decrease in tax = $32 billion / 2 = $16 billion

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Dr accounts payable $2,300

Cr cash $2300

Explanation:

Initially the cost of the purchases=$4600

Returning half of the disc means the left for the discs actually bought is half of the invoice price of $4600 i.e $2,300

By not paying within the discount period implies that the debt stands at $2,300

Without mincing words,payment of $2,300 to the supplier automatically translates to debiting account payable with $2,300 and crediting cash account with the same amount.

The correct answer would :

Dr accounts payable $2,300

Cr cash $2300

This is missing from the options provided.
