Answer 1

Answer is “Between 3.51 - 4.50”

December 20X4:

Current Assets = Cash + Accounts Receivable + Inventory + Interest Receivable + Prepaids
Current Assets = $101,000 + $192,000 + $330,000 + $3,000 + $17,000
Current Assets = $643,000

Current Liabilities = Accounts Payable + Accrued Liabilities + Wages Payable
Current Liabilities = $137,000 + $7,000 + $12,000
Current Liabilities = $156,000

Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
Current Ratio = $643,000 / $156,000
Current Ratio = 4.12
