Total debt ratio
A firm has a long-term debt-equity ratio of .4. Shareholders’ equity is $1 million. Current assets are $200,000, and the current ratio is 2. The only current liabilities are notes payable. What is the total debt ratio? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Explanation / Answer
Computation of Total debt ratio
Total debt ratio = Total debt / Total assets
Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities
= 200000 / Current liabilities = 2
Current liabilities = 100000
total liabilities = Current liabilities + non current liabilities
= 100000 + (long term debt + share holders equity)
= 100000 + (100000*4/5 + 100000*1/5)
= 200000
total debt ratio = 80000/ 200000 = 0.4
