Expert Solution

1) The given statement is false because the quick ratio does not contain the inventory. So, selling the inventory does not change the quick ratio.

 

2) Computation of the total assets turnover ratio:-

Total assets turnover ratio = Sales / Total assets

= $38,000 / $16,000

= 2.38 times

Correct option is e) 2.38 times

3) Computation of the change in debt:-

Debt / Assets ratio =Total debt / Total assets

55% = Total debt / $625,000

Total debt = $625,000 * 55%

= $343,750

Increase in debt = $343,750 - $185,000

= $158,750

 Correct option is b) $158,750
