Beacon, Inc has a profit margin of 14 percent, capital intensity ratio of 0.74, and ROE of 24.38 percent. What is the firm's debt-equity ratio?

If anyone could tell me how to do this problem, and not just the answer, that would be great

I think this is what you have to do:

Use this formula to get the debt to equity ratio

= total liabilities
shareholders equity

Just plug in the numbers and divide, your answer should be a percentage.
Hope this helps
