debt equity ratio = 66.667 or (66 2/3)
Total asset = 1000000
so, 1x+.6667 x = 1000000
here x = equity
1.6667x = 1000000
x= 1000000/1.6667
=600000
equity = 600000
then debt = 400000
if we purchase 200000 of asset with debt them debt and equity will be equal
new debt to equity ratio=600000/600000
= 100%
