    The Current ratio is 3.14 and Acid test ratio is 0.81

    Explanation:

    The formula of current ratio is:

    Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

    = (Cash + Short term investment + Accounts receivable + Inventory + Prepaid expenses) / (Accounts Payable + Other current payables)

    = ($39,970 + $9,200 + $40,500 + $241,000 + $16,830) / ($87,900 + $ 22,600)

    = $347,500 / $110,500

    = 3.14

    The formula of Acid-Test is:

    Acid-Test Ratio = Quick Assets / Current Liabilities

    = (Cash + Short term investment + Accounts receivable) / (Accounts Payable + Other current payables)

    = ($39,970 + $9,200 + $40,500) / ($87,900 + $ 22,600)

    = $89,670 / $110,500

    = 0.81
