Answer to Problem 11E

The updated current ratio is 1.63:1.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Current assets = $54,000

Current ratio = 1.80:1

Currentratio=CurrentassetsCurrentliabilities1.80=$54,000C.L.C.L.=$30,000

  1. Merchandise purchased for $6,000 on account
  2. Purchase of merchandise on account will increase the current assets as well as the current liabilities by the same amount.

    New Values

    Current Assets = $54,000 + $6,000 = $60,000

    Current liabilities = $30,000 + $6,000 = $36,000

    New ratio:

    Currentratio=CurrentassetsCurrentliabilities=$60,000$36,000=1.66:1

    1. Delivery truck purchased for $10,000 by paying $1,000 in cash and for the balanced amount signing a two years promissory note.

    Purchasing a delivery truck is a part of fixed asset so it will not impact the current assets. However, part of cash payment made for the truck will reduce the current asset. Signing a promissory note for a period of more than one year is a part of non-current liability. Therefore, it will not have any impact on the current liabilities.

    New values:

    Current assets = $60,000 - $1,000 = $59,000

    Current liabilities = $36,000

    New ratio:

    Currentratio=CurrentassetsCurrentliabilities=$59,000$36,000=1.63:1
