Wiley's has total equity of $679,400, long-term debt of $316,900, net working capital of $31,600, and total assets of $1,123,900

Elenna [48]

Answer:

The answer is 0.4

Explanation:

The formula for total debt ratio is total debt ÷ total assets.

Total debt equals current debt plus total long-term debt.

To find total debt(liability), remember Asset = Liability + Equity.

Therefore, Liability (debt) will be Asset - equity

$1,123,900 - $679,400

Total debt(liability) = $444,500

So, total debt ratio will be:

$444,500/$1,123,900

=0.4

This ratio means 0.4 or 40 percent of the company asset is financed by debt.

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

1.74%

Explanation:

17% Debt 50% Debt

Sales $500,000 $500,000

Less: Cost $450,000 $450,000

Less: Interest $5,546 $17,400

Profit before tax $44,454 $32,600

Less: Tax at 35% $15,559 $11,410

Net Income $28,895 $21,190

Equity $361,050 $217,500

Return on Equity 8.00% 9.74%

Change in ROE = 9.74% - 8.00% = 1.74%

Workings

Interest (17% Debt) = 43,500*17%*7.5% = $5,546

Interest (50% Debt) = 43,500*50%*8% = $17,400

Tax (17% Debt) = $44,454 * 0.35 = 15,559

Tax (50% Debt) = $32,600 * 0.35 = 11,410

Equity (17% Debt) =435,000*83% = 361,050

Equity (50% Debt) = 435,000*50% = $217,500

Return on Equity = $28,895/$361,050 = 8.00%

Return on Equity = $21,190/$217,500 = 9.74%
