Deloitte & Touche advised Deep Sea Seafood that:
• Cash includes $20,000 that is deposited in a compensating balance account that is tied up until 2018.
• The fair value of the short-term trading investments is $17,000. Deep Sea Seafood purchased the investments a couple of weeks ago.
• Deep Sea Seafood has been using the direct write-off method to account for uncollectible receivables. During 2016, Deep Sea Seafood wrote off bad receivables of $7,000. Deloitte & Touche determines that bad debt expense for the year should be 2.5% of sales revenue, which totaled $600,000 in 2016.
• Deep Sea Seafood reported net income of $92,000 in 2016.
Requirements
1. Restate Deep Sea Seafood's current accounts to conform to GAAP.
2. Compute Deep Sea Seafood's current ratio and acid-test ratio before and after your corrections.
3. Determine Deep Sea Seafood's correct net income for 2016.
