Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:-

1. Current ratio is

= Current Assets รท Current Liabilities

= $7,860 รท $3,930

= 2

2. Current cash debt coverage is

= Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities รท Average Current Liabilities

Average Current Liabilities = ($3,930 + $3,122) รท 2

= $3,526

Current Cash Debt Coverage Ratio = $1,251 รท $3,526

= 25.48%

3. Accounts receivable turnover is

= Net Credit Sales รท Average Accounts Receivables

= $8,258 รท (($4,000 + $3,800) รท 2)

= $8,258 รท $3,900

= 2.12 times

4. Average collection period is

= 365 รท Account Receivable Turnover

= 365 รท 2.12

= 172.17

5. Inventory Turnover is

= Cost of Goods Sold รท Average Inventory

= $5,328 รท ((1,800 + 1,800) รท 2

= $5,328 รท 1,800

= 2.96

6. Days in Inventory is

= 365 รท Inventory Turnover Ratio

= 365 รท 2.96

= 123.31 days
