proximately 75% of the population in Ethiopia does not have electricity. Approximately 55% of the population in Nigeria does not have electricity. Nearly 40% of the population in Bangladesh does not have electricity. Nearly 25% of the population in Indonesia does not have electricity. Approximately 25% of the population in India does not have electricity. * Yoè recognize, however, that it would be wise to consider the population of those countries before determining which market(s) would have the greatest potential for your products, so you obtain that information as well. Your research reveals the following population estimates: . Population of Ethiopia: 102,000,000 .
Population of Nigeria: 187,000,000 .
Population of Bangladesh: 163,000,000
Population of Indonesia: 260,000,000
Population of India: 1,327,000,000
Based on the information presented above, calculate the number of people in each country who do not have access to electricity.

b) Net income = $8,950
Cash flows form operating activities =

Acid-test ratio is also known as the quick ratio. It is the ratio of a firm's current assets to its current liabilities. It is a type of liquidity ratio. Liquidity ratio measures the ability of a firm to meet its short term obligation. The higher the acid-test ratio, the higher the liquidity of the firm.
Acid test ratio = (current asset - inventory) / current liabilities
Current assets - inventory = $105,000 - $60,000 = $45,000
