The balance sheet for Stevenson Corporation reported the following: noncurrent assets, $140,000; total assets, $440,000; noncurrent liabilities, $180,000; total stockholders’ equity, $98,000. Compute Stevenson’s working capital
Total Assets = Current Assets + Non Current Assets
$ 440,000 = Current Assets + $ 140,000
Current Assets = $ 440,000 - $ 140,000
= $ 300,000
Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Total Stock Holder's Equity
Total Assets = Current Liabilties + Non Current Liabilities+ Total Stock Holder's Equity
$ 440,000 = Current Liabilties + $ 180,000 + $ 98,000
Current Liabilties = $ 162,000
working capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities
= $ 300,000 - $ 162,000
= $ 138,000
Hence the correct answer is $ 138,000
