Alyward, Inc. currently has $2,145,000 in current
assets and $858,000 in current liabilities.
The company’s managers want to increase the
firm’s inventory, which will be financed by a short-
term loan with the bank.
What level of additional inventory can the firm
carry without its current ratio falling below 2.0?

Group Discussion 1 6
Aylward’s target current ratio is 2.0.
Let x represent the cost of the additional
inventory financed with the short-term note.
We solve for x as follows:
2 = ($2,145,000 + x) / ($858,000 + x)
x = $429,000
