What is meant by debt-equity ratio?

टीपा लिहा

उत्तर

It is calculated to assess the long-term solvency position of a business concern. The debt-equity ratio expresses the relationship between long-term debt and shareholder’s funds.

Debt equity ratio = `"Long term debt"/"Shareholders funds"`

Capital employed = Shareholder’s funds + Noncurrent liabilities

Greater the return on investment better is than the profitability of a business and vice versa.
