Solution
(a) Total Assets = $ 2.5 million, The firm\'s total assets are entirely composed of current assets
and net plant and equipment.
Net Plant and Equipment = $ 2 million and Current Assets = Total Assets - Net Plant and
Equipment = 2.5 - 2 = $ 0.5 million
Notes Payable = $ 150000 and Long-Term Debt = $ 750000
Total Common Equity = $ 1.5 million
Owner\'s Equity + Liabilities = Notes Payable + Long-Term Debt + Accruals + Accounts
Payable + Total Common Equity = Total Assets = $ 2.5 million
0.15 + 0.75 + Accounts Payable + Accruals + 1.5 = 2.5
Accounts Payable + Accruals = $ 0.1 million
Total Debt includes long-term capital financing debt and short-term interest bearing debt only.
Accounts Payable and Accruals do not form a part of a firm\'s total debt.
Hence, total debt = Notes Payable + Long-Term Debt = 150000 + 750000 = $ 900000
(b) Total Liabilities = Accounts Payable + Accruals + Long-Term Debt + Notes Payable = 0.1 +
0.75 + 0.15 = $ 1 million
Owner\'s Equity = Total Assets - Total Liabilities = 2.5 - 1 = $ 1.5 million
(c) Current Assets = Total Assets - Net Plant and Equipment = 2.5 - 2 = $ 0.5 million
(d) Current Laibility = Accruals + Accounts Payable = $ 0.1 million
NOTE: The current portion of notes payable(amount due within one year or accounting period)
is treated as current liability and the remaining portion is treated as non-current liability. As the
notes payable portion does not mention the amount due within a year, the entire value of notes
payable is treated as non-current laibility.
NOTE: Please raise separate queries for solutions to the remaining sub-parts..

Solution
(a) Total Assets = $ 2.5 million, The firm's total assets are entirely composed of current assets
and net plant and equipment.
Net Plant and Equipment = $ 2 million and Current Assets = Total Assets - Net Plant and
Equipment = 2.5 - 2 = $ 0.5 million
Notes Payable = $ 150000 and Long-Term Debt = $ 750000
Total Common Equity = $ 1.5 million
Owner's Equity + Liabilities = Notes Payable + Long-Term Debt + Accruals + Accounts
Payable + Total Common Equity = Total Assets = $ 2.5 million
0.15 + 0.75 + Accounts Payable + Accruals + 1.5 = 2.5
Accounts Payable + Accruals = $ 0.1 million
Total Debt includes long-term capital financing debt and short-term interest bearing debt only.
Accounts Payable and Accruals do not form a part of a firm's total debt.
Hence, total debt = Notes Payable + Long-Term Debt = 150000 + 750000 = $ 900000
(b) Total Liabilities = Accounts Payable + Accruals + Long-Term Debt + Notes Payable = 0.1 +
0.75 + 0.15 = $ 1 million
Owner's Equity = Total Assets - Total Liabilities = 2.5 - 1 = $ 1.5 million
(c) Current Assets = Total Assets - Net Plant and Equipment = 2.5 - 2 = $ 0.5 million
(d) Current Laibility = Accruals + Accounts Payable = $ 0.1 million
NOTE: The current portion of notes payable(amount due within one year or accounting period)
is treated as current liability and the remaining portion is treated as non-current liability. As the
2. notes payable portion does not mention the amount due within a year, the entire value of notes
payable is treated as non-current laibility.
