Answer 1

Answer:

22.98%

Explanation:

Here, the current entry means the ratio between the long term debt and the total assets

In mathematically,

= Long term debt ÷ total assets

where,

Total assets = Account receivable + cash + inventories + net fixed assets

= $397,400 + $47,500 + $288,000 + $999,000

= $1,731,900

And, the long term debt is $398,024

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the ratio would equal to

= $398,024  ÷ $1,731,900

= 22.98%
