Current Assets
Cash 15,000
Accounts Receivable, net 115,000
Inventory 212,000

Current ratio = CA/CL = 357,250/51,780 = 7.90

Quick ratio = (CA - Inventory)/CL =
(357,250 - 212,000)/51,780 = 2.81

Requirement 2:
Calculate the corporation's accounts receivable turnover ratio. The Accounts Receivable balance at December 31, 2007, was $122,000. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)
Accounts receivable turnover = Net Sales/Ave. AR*=
1,825,000/167,000 = 10.93

*Average AR = (Beg. AR + End. AR)/2

Requirement 3:
On average, how many days does it take River to collect its receivables? (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)
Days to collect receivables = 365/AR turnover = 365/10.93 = 33.40 days
