Assume that the company has a current ratio of 1.2. Now which of the above actions would improve this ratio. Which of the following actions would improve (i.e., increase) this ratio?• Use cash to pay off current liabilities.• Collect some of the current accounts receivable.• Use cash to pay off some long-term debt.• Purchase additional inventory on credit (i.e., accounts payable).• Sell some of the existing inventory at cost.
Consider the following cash flows:
Year Cash Flow
0 –$7,400
1 2,100
2 4,700
3 1,900
4 1,600
What is the payback period for the cash flows? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
2) What is mark-to-market accounting?
a. Hint: Use an example to demonstrate the type of accounting Enron was engaging in.
The following sequence of cash flows will be helpful. Assume a 10% discount rate.
t = 0
t = 1
4,950.00
t = 2
9,680.00
t = 3
(25,000.00)
16,637.50
First, calculate the accounting income for each year (i.e., use historical cost
accounting). Second, calculate the income using Enron's method (i.e., fair value
accounting).
