Answer:

The Value of the Total assets is $5964.85

Step-by-step explanation:

The formulae for deriving Debt-equity ratio = debt / equity

Then, Equity = Debt / Debt-equity ratio

Hence Equity= (1480 / 0.33) = $4484.85

Whereas, Total assets = Total liabilities (Debt) + Total equity

Value of the Total assets = 1,480 + 4,484.85

Value of the Total assets = $5964.85
