Maraby Corporation's working capital (in thousands of dollars) at the end of Year 2 was closest to?

Answer 1

1.) Current assets = working capital+Current liabilities = 41000+112000 = 153000

Current ratio = Current assets/Current liabilities = 153000/112000 = 1.37:1

2) Quick ratio = Quick assets/Current liabilities = (285000+356000)/306000 = 2.09:1

3) Working capital = Current assets-Current liabilities

= 620/360

Working capital = 1.72:1
