Assuming a current ratio of 1.00 and an acid test ratio of .75 how will the purcahse inventory with cash affect each ratio
MAVERICK [17]

The current ratio will remain the same as 1 only

The acid-test ratio will decrease.

  • The current ratio will stay the same because there won't be a change in current liabilities, and the change in current assets won't have any net consequences because the asset will grow due to an increase in inventory, but it will also decrease by the same amount due to a decrease in cash, so the current ratio will stay the same.
  • The acid-test ratio will decline since the numerator will shrink owing to a cash shortage, and the growth in inventory won't be taken into account because current assets aren't included in this ratio.

Answer:

The answer is given below;

Explanation:

Days sales in inventory-2017= Average Inventory/Cost of goods sold*365

                                =(115,000+85,000)/2/(458,674)/365

                                =80 days

Days sales inventory 2016= (85,000+56,000)/2/(385,686)*365

                                            =(70,500/385,686)*365

                                             =67 days

In evaluating the profit center manager, the income from operations should be compared a.across profit centers b.to historical p
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer: to historical performance or budget

Explanation:

A profit center in a business is a division that is able to make revenues independently and contribute to the revenue of the entire business. In evaluating the performance of a profit center manager, it is best to compare the performance to a budget or their historical performance.

This is because profit centers engage in different businesses and so their revenue making style will be unique. Some profit centers will make more than others because of the goods they produce or the way they produce it. It is therefore best to compare a profit center to an internal measure such as the budget and historical performance.

If the profit center exceeds either of these then they are performing well.
