Answer from: iikatreii

current liability = 4.5 million

inventory = 2.25 million

Explanation: Current ratio can be defined as a liquidity ratio that is used to analyze whether the company has enough resources to fulfill its short term obligations. It is computed as follows :-

$current\:ratio\:=\frac{current\:assets}{current\:liability}$

$current\:ratio\:=\:\frac{9million}{current\:liabilities}$

therefore,

current liabilities= $\frac{9\million}{2}$

= 4.5 million

Quick ration is more stringent liquidity ratio. It is computed as follows :-

$quick\:ratio\:= \frac{current\:assets\:-\:inventories}{current\;liabilities}$

$1.5\:=\frac{9}{4.5}$

solving this equation we get

inventory = 2.25 million

Answer from: jamarstand

The correct answer is current liabilities is equal to $4.5 million and firm's level of inventory is $2.25 million.

Explanation:

Both current ratio and quick ratio are know as liquidity ratio which tells about the ability of a firm to meet its short term obligations.

The only difference between these two ratio is of taking inventory and prepaid expenses in to account, as while calculating the quick ratio we don't take inventory and prepaid expenses in to account.

Formula for current ratio = $\frac{CURRENT ASSET}{CURRENT LIABILITIES}$

Where the current ratio is 2.0 and current assets is equal to $9 million,

$\frac{\$9\ million}{CURRENT\ LIABILITIES}= 2.0$

CURRENT LIABILITIES = $4.5 MILLION

Formula for quick ratio = $\frac{QUICK ASSETS}{CURRENT LIABILITIES}$

Here current liabilities = $4.5 million,

Quick asset = current assets - inventory

$\frac{\$9\ MILLION - INVENTORY}{\$4.5\ MILLLION}= 1.5$

INVENTORY = $9 MILLION - $6.75 MILLION

INVENTORY = $2.25 MILLION

The business cycle is the periodic but irregular up-and-down movement in economic activity, measured by fluctuations in real gross domestic product (gdp) and other macroeconomic variables. a business cycle is typically characterized by four phases—recession, recovery, growth, and decline—that repeat themselves over time. economists note, however, that complete business cycles vary in length. the duration of business cycles can be anywhere from about two to twelve years, with most cycles averaging six years in length. some business analysts use the business cycle model and terminology to study and explain fluctuations in business inventory and other individual elements of corporate operations. but the term "business cycle" is still primarily associated with larger (industry-wide, regional, national, or even international) business trends.
