(a)  1.70

(b) 13.26%

(c) $70,278.00  

Explanation:

Given that,

Debt-equity ratio = 0.70

Return on assets = 7.8%

Total equity = $530,000

Debt = 0.70 × Equity

        = 0.70 × $530,000

        = $371,000

Assets = Debt + Equity

           = $371,000 + $530,000

           = $901,000

(a)

                                         = 1.70

(b)  Return on Assets =  Assets × Return on assets percent

                                   =$901,000 × 7.8%

                                   = $70,278.00  

                                         = 13.26%

(c)  Net income = Return on Assets

                         = $70,278.00
