<u>fostering competition</u>

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Appalachian Beverages

The Updated current ratio is:

= 1.65

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Current assets = $39,900

Current ratio = 1.90

Current liabilities = $21,000 ($39,900/1.90)

Current Assets:

Beginning balance = $39,900

Inventory                      $5,100

Cash                           ($2,000)

Ending balance =      $43,000

Current Liabilities:

Beginning balance = $21,000

Accounts Payable       $5,100

Ending balance =      $26,100

Analysis of Transactions:

1. Inventory $5,100 Accounts Payable $5,100

2. Delivery Truck $10,000 Cash $2,000 Two-year Note Payable $8,000

Updated current ratio = Current assets/Current liabilities

= $43,000/$26,100

= 1.65
