The Current ratio is 1.16

Explanation:

The formula to compute the current ratio is:

Current ratio = Current Assets (CA) / Current Liabilities(CL)

where

CA is computed as:

CA = Cash + Short term investment + Net Accounts Receivable + Merchandise Inventory

= $ 47,000 + $16,000 + $56,000 + $51,000

= $170,000

CL is computed as:

CL = Accounts Payable + Salary Payable

= $130,000 + $16,000

= $146,000

Putting the values in the formula:

= $170,000 / $146,000

= 1.16
