Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Equity = 140 Millions

Debt = 155 Millions

Debt Equity Ratio = Debt ÷ Equity

                             = 155 Millions ÷ 140 Million

                              = 1.11

KCE is financing its new project with 25 Millions

Let the New debt issued by x   and the New equity financed be (25-x) .

Debt Equity Ratio = Debt ÷ Equity

1.11 = (155 + x) ÷ (140 + 25 - x)

1.11 = (155 + x) ÷ (165 - x)  

183.15 - 1.11x = 155 + x

28.15 = 2.11 x

x = 13.34

Option (a) is the most nearest to this answer.

New Debt = 155 + 13.34

                 = 168.34 Millions

New Equity = 140 + 11.66

                    = 151.66 Millions
