Answer #1

Net fixed assets is $ 11,760.65

Equity = (Sales * Profit margin) / ROE
= (5135*9.20%) / 16.60%
= $       472.42 / 16.60%
= $   2,845.90
Current assets = Current liabilities * Current ratio
= $       900.00 * 1.5
= $   1,350.00
Balance sheet has two side.Assets side and second one is liabilities and equity side.Both sides are always same.
Second side comprises of current liabilities, long term debt and equity.
We have current liabilities and equity.So, remaining balance od second side is only long term debt
So, long term debt is calculated as follows:
Long term debt = Total of current liabilities and equity / (1-long term debt ratio)
= (900+2845.90) / (1-0.60)
= $   3,745.90 /              0.40
= $   9,364.75
Net fixed assets = Total of liabilities and equity - Current assets
= $   2,845.90 + 900 +9364.75 - 1350
= $ 11,760.65
