                     7.  This data was taken from the balance sheet of Autry Enterprises: cash, $64,000;
                         marketable securities, $54,000; accounts receivable, $105,000; merchandise inventory,
                         $290,000; notes payable, $125,000; accounts payable, $48,000. Find the (a) current
                         ratio and (b) acid-test ratio. Where applicable, round to the nearest tenth.

                         (a)   Current Ratio  =  Current Assets =  $ 513,000 =   10.7:1

                                                            Current Liabilities

                              Acid-Test Ratio  =  64,000 + 105,000 + $290,000 =  $459,000 =  9.6 : 1
