Answer

The answer is 0.40

Explanation

The Debt Ratio is calculated by dividing Total Liabilities by Total Assets.

Option 1: 0.40

Debt Ratio = Total Liabilities / Total Assets Debt Ratio = \$100,000 / \$250,000 Debt Ratio = 0.40

Option 2: 0.66

This option is incorrect because it does not match the calculation of the Debt Ratio based on the given figures.

Option 3: 2.50

This option is also incorrect because it significantly overestimates the Debt Ratio based on the given figures.
