Answer 1

Answer:

Willowa Inc.

a. Willowa's accounting equation (assets = liabilities + equity)

= $220 + $320 + $130 = $160 + $380 + $130

b. Working capital = Current assets - current liabilities

= $60 million ($220 - $160 million)

c. Willowa owes $540 million to creditors.

d. The company's assets owed by Willowa's stockholders = $130 million.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Current assets = $220 million

Property, plant, equipment = $320 million

Other assets = $130 million

Total assets = $670 million

Current liabilities = $160 million

Long-term liabilities = $380 millon

Total liabilities = $540 million

Equity = Total assets - total liabilities

= $130 ($670 - $540) million
