The required debt-equity ratio is 14:15
<u>Solution:</u>
<em>Given:</em>
Liabilities of the company = $14000
Equity of the company = $15000
<em>To calculate: </em>The debt-equity ratio
Here, the liabilities are included in the debt of the company. The debt-to-equity (D/E) ratio is calculated by dividing a company's total liabilities by its shareholder equity. Therefore, the debt equity ratio is as follows,


The debt-equity ratio reflects the ability of shareholder equity to cover all outstanding debts in the event of a business downturn.
Answer:

7/g This is the correct answer to your problem
A line is perpendiculat to another which has a slope of m if the perpendicular line has a slope of -1/m.
That means that if the product of slopes of two lines is -1, the two lines are perpendicular.
Here, y1=-7/4x, or m=-7/4
The perpendicular should have a slope of -1/m=-1/(-7/4)=4/7
