How Do You Determine Total Debt For For Debt Ratio?

Submitted by on October 12, 2009 – 2:51 pmNo Replies


A web user asks, Im having trouble determining the total for the debt ratio of total debt divided by total assets. I need Wal-Marts total debt, but not sure what categories on the balance sheet are included. Do I add total current liabilities, long term debt, long term obligations under capital leases, deferred income taxes and other, minority interest? I just need to know what to add up to get the total debt for Wal-Mart 2008. Thank you!
