    Explanation:

    The formula and the computation of the debt to capital ratio is shown below:

    The debt to capital ratio equals to

    = (Debt : total invested capital) * 100

    where,

    Debt = Total capital - stock price * number of shares outstanding

    = $110 million - $15 * 4.7 million shares

    = $110 - $70.5 million

    = $39.5 million

    And, the total invested capital is $110 million

    So, the debt to equity ratio is

    = $39.5 million : $110 million

    = 35.91%
