    a) D/V = 68.63 %

    E/V = 31.37 %

    b) D/V = 17.07 %

    E/V = 82.93 %

    Explanation:

    book value:

    equity:

    6,000,000 x 8 = 48,000,000

    liability:

    23-years bonds: 65,000,000

    5-years bonds: 40,000,000

    total 105,000,000

    Value: eqiuty + laibility: 105,000,000 + 48,000,000 = 153,000,000

    book value Weights:

    D 105,000,000 / 153,000,000 = 68.63

    E 48,000,000 / 153,000,000 = 31.37

    market value

    equity:

    6,000,000 x 85 = 510,000,000

    liability:

    23-years bonds:

    65,000,000 x 95% = 61,750,000

    5-years bonds:

    40,000,000 x 108% = 43,200,000

    total 104,950,000

    Value: eqiuty + laibility: 510,000,000 + 104,950,000

    Total Assets = $614,950,000

    Market value Weights:

    Debt = 104,950,000/614,950,000

    Debt = 0.1707

    Equity = 510,000,000/614,950,000

    Equity = 0.8293
