Answer:

0.82

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the firm's asset beta

Using this formula

Firm's asset beta=Equity beta/(1+/D/E)

Let plug in the formula

Firm's asset beta=1.2/(1+0.47)

Firm's asset beta=1.2/1.47

Firm's asset beta=0.816

Firm's asset beta=0.82 (Approximately)

Therefore the firm's asset beta is 0.82

Answer:

The current ratio is 1.18 times

Explanation:

Current Ratio: The current ratio is that ratio which shows a relationship between the current assets and the current liabilities

The computation of the current ratio is shown below

Current ratio = Total Current assets ÷ total current liabilities

where,

Total current assets = Cash + short-term investments + net accounts receivable + merchandise inventory

=  $43,500 + $27,000 + $102,000 + $125,000

= $297,500

And, the total current liabilities is $251,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the ratio would equal to

= $297,500 ÷ $251,000

= 1.18 times

The long term note payable is not a current liabilities,hence it is not considered in the computation part.
