Answer 1

Answer: Higher target debt-equity ratios than firms that primarily invest in intangible assets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangible assets can be expensive and when a company has large investments in them that usually means that they spent a considerable amount to acquire them. This is why they turn to debt because it will allow them to afford these tangible assets.
