    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

    Debt outstanding = debt/capital ratio * Assets

    = 44% * $11,171,875

    = $4,915,625
