Answer:

a.      Liabilities                                          Assets

   Bank loan                  $50,000            Cash             $70,000

  Shareholders' equity $50,000             Computers  $30,000

Total=                         $100,000                                 $100,000

b. Real assets= $30,000, Total assets= $100,000

Ratio of real assets to total assets = $30,000 / $100,000

Ratio of real assets to total assets = 0.3

Ratio of real assets to total assets =30%

c. After Lanni spends the $70,000 to develop its software product.
