Leverage Ratios
Leverage ratios are two types:
balance sheet ratios comparing leverage
capital to total capital or total assets, and
coverage ratios which measure the earnings
or cash-flow times coverage of fixed cost
obligations.
Leverage Ratios
How much debt does the firm have? Thats the
question answered by the leverage ratios
Especially be on the lookout for companies with a
high proportion of fixed costs (high operating
leverage) and with lots of debt. Airlines are a good
example
Debt-equity ratio = long-term debt/equity
Long-term debt ratio = long-term debt / ( longterm debt + equity)
Total debt ratio = total liabilities / total assets
