1.96 Decreased; 2.06 Increased; 2.28 Increased; 1.83 Decreased

Explanation:

Let's present it in a table

Current Assets / Current Liabilities = Current Ratio

Beg. 1,000,000 / 500,000 = 2

In A. Current Assets increased and Current Liabilities Increased.

a. 1,020,000 / 520,000 = 1.96 Decreased

In B. Current Assets decreased and Current Liabilities decreased.

b. 970,000 / 470,000 = 2.06 Increased

In C. Current Assets increased and Current Liabilities remained the same.

c. 1,070,000 / 470,000 = 2.28 Increased

In D. Current Assets increased and Current Liabilities Increased.

d. 1,3720,000 / 720,000 = 1.83 Decreased

Current ratio moves when a current asset or current liability moves.
