Solutions

Expert Solution

The formula used for all the ratios is as given below

$Basic Earning Power = Earnings Before Interest & Taxes (EBIT)/ Total Assets$

Since, Total Debt + Total Equity = Total Assets

As given, D/E = 1

Adding 1 to both sides we get,

1+ D/E = 1+1

Total Assets / Total Equity = 2
