Respuesta :

Answer:

d. 20.0%.

Explanation:

The computation of the debt to equity is shown below:

Debt to equity is

= (total debt ÷ total equity)

where,

Total debt is $700,000

And, the total equity is $3,500,000

Now place these values to the above formula

So, the debt to equity ratio is

= ($700,000 ÷ $3,500,000)

= 20%.

Hence, the debt to equity ratio is 20%

Therefore the correct option is d. 20%
