In addition, the equity issued had a flotation cost of 7.7 percent of the amount raised, whereas the debt issued had a flotation cost of 3.7 percent of the amount raised.
If the company issued new securities in the same proportion as its target capital structure, what is the company’s target debt–equity ratio? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 4 decimal places, e.g., 32.1616.)

Hence,
x+y=14.7
x*7.7%+y*3.7%=0.795
=>x=6.2775 million and
y=8.4225 million
Target Debt Equity Ratio=8.4225/6.2775=1.341696535
