The undergrounds coffee shop has total assets of $85,300 and an equity multiplier of 1.53. what is the debt-equity ratio?

Let us go to the basic accounting equation: Assets = Liabilities + Shareholder's Equity. The equity multiplier is computed by dividing the total assets with the total shareholders' equity. We know the total assets as $85,3000. Using the formula for the equity multiplier, we can calculate the amount of the shareholders' equity. The given equity multiplier is 1.53. To calculate the shareholders' equity, we just have to divide the $85,300 (total assets) with 1.53 (equity multiplier). We can get the amount of $55,752. Using the accounting equation, we can compute the amount of liabilities as $29,548. The formula to get the debt-equity ratio is dividing the total shareholder's equity by the liabilities. $55,752 divided by $29,548, we can get 1.89 as the debt-equity ratio.
