    Current ratio = 0.32 times

    Acid-test ratio = 0.27 times

    Explanation:

    The computation is shown below:

    For current ratio

    = Total Current assets : total current liabilities

    = $867: $2,778

    = 0.32 times

    For acid-test ratio

    = Quick assets : total current liabilities

    where,

    Quick assets = Total current assets - inventory

    = $867 - $122

    = $745

    And the total current liabilities is $2,778

    So, the acid-test ratio would be

    = $745 : $2,778

    = 0.27 times
