    First you need to know 2 things.

    1. Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Owners Equity

    2. Debt Ratio = Total Liabilities / Total Assets

    Since Total Assets equals Total Liabilities plus Owners Equity you already know this amount. Total Assets is $7,281,000

    Now to answer question (a) the first thing you need to do is find total liabilities. So Total Liabilites = Current Liabilities + Long-Term Liabilities. Now you have Total liabilites so divide this number by total assets and multiply it by 100 to get your answer to a percentage amount.

    For question (b) you will have to add $1,500,000 to total assets to get your new total assets amount and you will have to add $1,500,000 to your total liabilities amount to get your new total liabilities amount. Now take your new total liabilities amount and divide it by your new total assets amount and times it by 100 to get your answer to a percentage amount.
