Profitability Ratios

Bryce Company manufactures pet supplies. However, Bryce's electronic accounting system recently crashed and, unfortunately, only a partial recovery of the company's year-end accounting records (which included several profitability ratios) was possible. As a result, Bryce's controller, a bright young CMA named Jeanette, must compute various lost financial account balances using the recovered information listed below.

Long-term liabilities	$1,500,000
Ending inventory is the same as beginning inventory.
Gross margin	$2,900,000
Net sales	$7,900,000
Accounts receivable turnover	50
Ending accounts receivable is the same as beginning accounts receivable.
Total liabilities	$1,900,000

Cash	$540,000
Quick ratio	4.5
Inventory turnover in days	3.65
