Answer 1

Answer of Part 1:

Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities
Working Capital = $1,541,040 - $513,680
Working Capital = $1,027,360

Answer of Part 2:

Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
Current Ratio = $1,541,040 / $513,680
Current Ratio = 3:1

Answer of Part 3:

Quick Ratio = (Current Assets – Inventories – Prepaid Expenses) / Current Liabilities
Quick Ratio = ($1,541,040 - $292,000 - $59,330) / $513,680
Quick Ratio = $1,189,710 / $513,680
Quick Ratio = 2.3:1

Answer of Part 4:

Average Accounts Receivable = (Beginning Accounts Receivable + Ending Accounts Receivable) /2
Average Accounts Receivable = ($379,600 + $401,500) /2
Average Accounts Receivable = $390,550

Accounts Receivable Turnover = Sales / Average Accounts Receivable
Accounts Receivable Turnover = $2,108,970 / $390,550
Accounts Receivable Turnover = 5.4 times
