Question 1

A company has a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.6. If its equity is $500,000, what is its total debt?

Accepted Answer

$300,000

Answer

Debt = 0.6 × $500,000 = $300,000.

Question 2

Sales figures for Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 are $120K, $150K, $135K, and $175K. What percentage of annual sales did Q4 represent?

Accepted Answer

29.2%

Answer

Total = $580K; Q4 percentage = 175/580 × 100 ≈ 30.17% — closest is 29.2%... let me recalculate: 175/580 = 0.3017 ≈ 30.2%; the closest listed answer is 30.4% — actually 175/580 × 100 = 30.17, so 30.4% is closest.

Question 3
