The explanation to the answer is now as follows:

The current ratio is a liquidity ratio that is used in measuring whether a company has adequate resources to meet its short-term obligations or pay its liabilities from its current assets.

The current ratio provides a comparison current assets to current liabilities of a company and it can be calculated using the following formula:

Current ratio = Total current assets / Total current liabilities (1)

From the 2017 balance sheet of Burnaby Mountain Trading Company, we have:

Total current assets = $1,700,000

Total current liabilities = $600,000

Substituting the values for Total current assets and Total current liabilities into equation (1), we have:

Current ratio = $1,700,000 / $600,000 = 2.83

Therefore, The firm's current ratio for 2017 is 2.83. That is, the correct option is option d. 2.83.

This indicates that the firm has more than enough current assets to pay off 2.83 or 283% of its current liabilities.

answer assertive;

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
