Question 8 1 out of 1 points

Muscarella Inc. has the following balance sheet and income statement data: Cash Receivables Inventories Total CA Net fixed assets Total assets Sales Net income $ 14,000 70,000 210,000 $294,000 126,000 $420,000 $280,000 $ 21,000 Accounts payable Other current liabilities Total CL Long-term debt Common equity Total liab. and equity $ 42,000 28,000 $ 70,000 70,000 280,000 $420,000
