A firm has a long-term debt-equity ratio of .4. Shareholders’ equity is $1 million. Current assets are $200,000, and the current
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Total debt ratio is 33.33%

Explanation:

A long term debt to equity ratio of 0.4 tells that the value of long term debt is 0.4 or 40% of the value of the equity. If the value of the equity is $1 million, the value of long term debt is,

Long term debt = 0.4 * 1000000 = $400000

A current ratio is calculated by dividing the current assets by the current liabilities. It tells how many current assets are available to satisfy $1 of current liabilities. A current ratio of 2 means that for every $1 of current liability, $2 of current assets are available. Thus, current liabilities are half of current assets. If the value of current assets is $200000, the value of current liabilities is,

Current liabilities = 200000 * 1/2  = $100000

Total liabilities = 400000 + 100000 = $500000

A debt ratio is calculated by dividing the value of total debt or total liabilities by the value of total assets.

Total assets = total liabilities + total equity

Total assets = 500000 + 1000000

Total assets = $1500000 or $1.5 million

Total debt ratio = 500000 / 1500000

Total debt ratio = 1/3 or 0.3333 or 33.33%

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

$22,897.74

Explanation:

Given:

Loan amount (P) = $22,000

rate (R) = 8% = 8/100=0.08/365 = 0.000219178082

Number of days(n) = 6 month = (6 x 365)/12 = 182.5

Total Amount = ?

A = P(1+ I)^n\\A = 22,000(1+0.000219178082)^{182.5}\\=22,000(1.000219178082)^{182.5}\\=22,000(1.04080658)\\= 22,897.744

Therefore, he have to pay $22,897.74 to the bank.
