3: Hilton's debt to equity ratio shows that the creditor financing was more than 3 times the owners financing.
(Debt = Total liabilities and equity- Equity value)
= =25716-5951 = $19,765
Equity = $5951 hence debt> 3*5951 = $17853
Option 1 is incorrect because the capital is generated more from creditors than investors.
Option 2 is incorrect because the debt ratio is already high and raising it further will endanger the liquidity position of the firm.
Option 4 is incorrect since raising the D/E ratio further will endanger the liquidity position of the firm and the creditors funds will be in risk.
