Explanation / Answer

a)

current ratio = current asset /current liabilities

    = 3870000/2140000

   = 1.81

B)Quick ratio = [current asset - Inventory ] / current liabilities

      = [= 3870000 - 2220000] /2140000

        = .77

c) cash ratio = cash and marketable securities / current liabilities

          = 330000/2140000

         = .15 times
