Explanation / Answer

Debt ratio=0.6

Total Debt=320,000

Net income = 39,500

Return on equity(ROE)

ROE or return on Equity = Net income/Total Equity

In the above formula we don’t know Total equity.

We will use the debt ratio to find this total equity.

Debt ratio = Total Debt/Total Equity

0.6 = 320,000/Equity

Thus total equity = 533,333.3$

Thus ROE = 39,500/533,333.33 = 0.07406 or 7.41%
