Answer:

$7,210.1065

Explanation:

The computation of net fixed assets is shown below:-

But before that we need to do the following calculations

Current Ratio = Current Assets ÷ Current Liabilities

Current Assets = 1.40 × $970

= $1,358

Profit Margin = Net Income ÷ Sales

= 9.30% = Net income ÷ $5,190

Net income = $5,190 × 9.30%

= $482.67

ROE = Net Income ÷ Shareholders Equity

16.90% = $482.67 ÷ Shareholders Equity

Shareholders Equity = $482.67 ÷ 16.90%

= $2,856.0355

Long-term debt ratio = Long term debt ÷ (Long term debt + Equity)

0.50 = Long term debt ÷ (Long term debt + $2,856.0355)

Long term debt = 0.50 × Long term debt + $2,856.0355

0.5 × Long term debt = $2,856.0355

Long term debt = $2,856.0355 ÷ 0.50

= $5,712.071

Total Assets = long term debt + Equity

= $5,712.071 + $2,856.0355

= $8,568.1065

Now

Total Assets = Current Assets + Fixed Assets

$8,568.1065 = $1,358 + fixed assets

So, the fixed asset is

= $8,568.1065 - $1,358

= $7,210.1065
