Answer:
1. $132,600
2. $7,700
3. $25,600
Explanation:
1. Calculation to determine Total current assets
First step is to calculate the Current liabilities using this formula
Current liabilities = salaries payable + accounts playable + accrued interest
Let plug in the formula
Current liabilities= 19000 + 58000 + 1000
Current liabilities= 78000
Now let calculate the Total current assets using this formula
Total current assets = current ratio * current liabilities
Let plug in the formula
Total current assets = 1.7* 78000
Total current assets = $132,600
Therefore Total current assets is $132,600
2. Calculation to determine Short-term investments
Using this formula
Short term investments = Current assets - [cash + accounts receivables + inventory]
Let plug in the formula
Short term investments = 132,600 - [6900 + 39,000 + 79,000]
Short term investments = $7,700
Therefore Short term investments will be $7,700
3. Calculation to determine the Retained earnings
Using this formula
Current assets + fixed assets = Current liabilities + Long term liabilities + paid in capital + retained earnings
Let plug in the
132,600 + 215,000 = 78,000 + 49,000 + 195,000 + Retained earnings
347,600 = 322,000 + retained earnings
Retained earnings = 347,600 - 322,000
Retained earnings = $25,600
Therefore Retained earnings will be $25,600
