What is the current ratio? $500, 000/$250, 000= 2 or 2: 1 $250, 000/$500, 000 =. 5 For every $1 of current liabilities the firm has $2 of current assets For every $1 of current liabilities the firm has $0. 50 of current assets

Expected Cash Flows of A new Machine $60, 000/$120, 000 X 12 = 6 MONTHS Year Annual Net Cash Flows ($) Cumulative Cash Flows ($) 0 (300, 000) 1 60, 000 (240, 000) 2 80, 000 (160, 000) 3 100, 000 (60, 000) 4 120, 000 60, 000
