Respuesta :

Answer:

Current ratio  = Current Assets / Current Liability

Current ratio 2019   = 9,523 / 5,821

Current ratio 2019   = 1.64 : 1

Current ratio 2020 =  10,683 / 4,974

Current ratio 2020 =  2.15 : 1

Working Capital = Current asset - Current liability

Working capital 2019 = $9,523 - $5,821

Working capital 2019 = $3,702

Working capital 2020 = $10,683 -  $4,974

Working capital 2020 = $5,709
