Answer:
 Outstanding debt = $4,915,625
Explanation:
Since the debt capital ratio 44%, then the equity/ capital ratio is 56% i.e (100% -44%)
The total value of stock = Book value per share × outstanding capital
               = $22.75 × 275,000 =  $6,256,250.
The total value of equity = 56% × total value of assets
       $6,256,250.    = 56% × y
          6,256,250/56% = y
          11,171,875  = y
Total value of assets = $11,171,875 Â
Debt outstanding = debt/capital ratio × Assets
             =  44% × $11,171,875
              = $4,915,625
