    Ratios
    Current Ratio
    1.47
    Acid-Test Ratio
    0.28
    Gross Margin Ratio
    62.88%

Explanation of Solution

Current Ratio = Current Asset / Current Liabilities

  = $14,650 / $10,000 = 1.47

*Current Asset = Cash + Merchandise Inventory + Store Supplies + Prepaid Insurance

  = $1,000 + $10,900 + $1,750 + $1,000 = $14,650

Acid-Test Ratio = Quick Asset / Current Liabilities

  = $2,750 / $10,000= 0.28

*Quick Asset = Current Assets − Merchandise Inventory − Prepaid Insurance

  = $14,650  $10,900  $1,000 = $2,750

Gross Margin Ratio = Gross Profit / Net Sales

  = $67,750 / $107,750 = 62.88%
