    Equity multiplier = Total assets/Total equity

    Total assets = 487,920

    Equity multiplier = 1.47

    1.47 = 487,920/Total equity

    Total equity = 487,920/1.47 = 331,918.37

    Total debt = Total assets - Total equity = 487,920 - 331,918.37 = 156,001.63

    Debt-equity ratio = total debt/total equity

    Debt-equity ratio = 156001.63/331918.37 = 0.47

    Alternatively,

    Equity multiplier = 1 + Debt-equity

    1.47 = 1+debt-equity

    Debt-equity = 1.47-1 = 0.47
