Options:

3:2

2:2.65

2.95:2

Correct Answer:

2.65:1

Explanation:

Total assets to Debt Ratio = Total assets/Long-term debts
                                            = 
4500000/ 1700000
                                           = 2.65:1

 * Total assets = Goodwill + other current assets + current assets
                  = 500000 + 2200000 + 1800000
                  = ₹4500000

* Long term debts = Debentures + loan from bank
                            = 1000000 + 700000
                             = ₹1700000
