1.
The firm can increase its inventory without its current ratio falling below 1.1 by
1.1 times = $4,500,000 / $3,700,000
1.1 times = ($4,500,000 + y) / ($3,700,000 + y)
$4,500,000 + y = $4,070,000 + 1.1y
$430,000 = 0.1y
y = $4,300,000

Current Assets = $ 4500000 | ||||||||||
Current liabilities = $ 3700000 | ||||||||||
let, the amount financed for purchase of inventory be 'x' | ||||||||||
Now, Revised current assets = 4500,000+ x (as amount invested in inventory will increase the current assets) | ||||||||||
Revised current liabilities = 3700000 (There will be no change as the amount borrowed thrugh long term bonds) | ||||||||||
Now, as per question, current ratio shall be minimum 1.50 | ||||||||||
Therefore, the maximum amount of inventory which shall be purchased shall be computed as under: | ||||||||||
Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities | ||||||||||
1.50 = (4500,000+x) / 3700000 | ||||||||||
x= 1050000 | ||||||||||
Hence, the maximum amount of inventory the firm shall purchase is $ 1050,000 | ||||||||||
