Solve for debt equity ratio with debt ratio of 43?
For a company, the debt ratio indicates the relationship between capital supplied by outsiders and capital supplied by shareholders. Often the debt ratio is computed as total debt (both current and long-term) divided by total assets. Thus if a company has $50,000 in debt and assets of $100,000, its debt ratio is 50%. The debt ratio is also calculated as total debt/shareholders' equity, long-term debt/shareholders' equity, and in other ways. However computed, the debt ratio provides insight into the firm's capital structure and will vary across industries. A low debt ratio isn't necessarily best: If a company can earn a greater return on debt than its cost, the firm should borrow more and raise its debt ratio -- provided the debt burden won't be crushing when business slows. Turning to consumers, the debt ratio is often shorthand for the "debt to income" ratio, i.e., an individual's monthly minimum debt payments divided by monthly gross income. The debt ratio is monitored by credit card companies and determines the consumer's ability to obtain additional credit

What is the difference between dividends and interest expense?
Interest Expense is usually calculated by (Carrying Value of Liability*Yield Rate * Time). Carrying Value is the actual present value of the liability (including discounts earned, etc) Interest Expense is the money that actually goes out of the firm. Interest Paid is calculated by (Face Value of Liability*Interest Rate * Time). Interest Paid is the fair-value of dues from the firm, but is not the actual value of the liability. Interest Expense is the amount reflected in the books of the firm, and is usually higher than Interest Paid. This is because Interest Expense often includes the cost of discount amortization(this is necessary when the bond/other liability was gained at a discount. The amortization is worked into the formula above, and hence gives an amount higher than interest paid. This gives the total interest expensed by the Company.) Hope this helps. Cheers
