Gearing

Hhuma4y ago
Sir for Afm paper, we have to use the formula debt/equity OR debt/debt+equity for gearing?

Either - it does not matter (unless the examiner specifies which to use) because any discussion regarding an increase or decrease in the gearing will be the same whichever way you are measuring it.
