    Answer: $19,224

    Explanation:

    The amounts that are reported as the current assets "cash and cash equivalents" as follows:

    Currency = $54

    U. S. Treasury bill = $10,300

    April checks = $260

    Checking account = $2,880

    Savings account = $5,730

    Therefore,

    Cash and cash equivalents balance at April 30, 2017:

    = $54 + $10,300 + $260 + $2,880 + $5,730

    = $19,224
