Question
Chapter 12, Problem 1RQ
Summary Introduction
To discuss: The amount of increase of Company A’s debt to total asset ratio by issuing new bond.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
The common indicator of the use of borrowed funds and financial leverage of a firm is debt to total asset ratio.
In the year 2011, company A had $65 billion in borrowed funds relative to $270 billion in assets. This generates debt to total assets ratio of 24%. The additional borrowing of $3 billion in the year 2012 will increase the total borrowings to $68 billion.
It is to be noticed that company A did not paid any debt in the year 2011. Then the total asset will increase to $273 billion and the debt to total asset ratio of the firm will rise to 24.9% for an increase of marginally less than 1%.
