Answer:

8.06

Explanation

  • Debt equity ratio=Debt÷ Equity
  • Debt÷Equity=0.57
  • Equity=620,000 in this question
  • Debt=620,000*0.57=353,400.
  • Assets=Debt+Equity
  • Assets in this case=353,400+620,000=973,400
  • Return on asset=Profit for the year=7.9%*973,400=76898.6
  • Equity Multiplier=Total Equity/Profit for the year
  • Equity Multiplier=620,000/76898.6=8.06
