Answer:
Current ratio = 0.33 times
Acid test ratio = 0.29 times
Explanation:
• Current ratio
Current ratio = Total current assets ÷ Total current liabilities
= $875 ÷ $2,638
= 0.33 times
• Acid test ratio
Acid test ratio = Quick assets ÷ total current liabilities
Where,
Quick assets = Total current assets - Inventory
= $875 - $116
= $759
Recall total current liabilities = $2,638
Therefore,
Acid test ratio = $759 ÷ $2,638
Acid test ratio = 0.29 times
Answer:
Investment in stock x = $7816.67
Investment in stock y = $6183.33
Explanation:
The computation of invest in Stock X and Stock Y is shown below:-
Let the weight be x
x × 14% + (1 - x) ×8%
= 11.35%
0.14x + 0.08 - 0.08x
= 0.1135
0.14x - 0.08x
= 0.1135 - 0.08
0.06x = 0.335
x = 0.335 ÷ 0.06
x = 55.83%
Investment in stock x = x × Stock portfolio
= 55.83% × $14,000
= $7816.67
Investment in stock y = 1 - 0.5583 × $14,000
= $6183.33
