Expert Solution
Step 1

Leverage Ratios:

One of the most crucial financial statistics is the leverage ratio, which shows how much of the company's capital is held in the form of debt. It also examines the business's ability to fulfil its responsibilities. Leverage ratio becomes more important when it examines the company's capital structure and how it may be managed to allow it to pay down its debts.

There are two main categories of leverage ratios: Capitalization Ratio and Coverage Ratio

Capitalization Ratio: In order for the business to concentrate on long-term solvency, the capital structure ratio is employed to decide the financing strategy.
Coverage Ratio :Coverage ratios assess a company's capacity to pay dividends and interest on its debt, as well as other debt-related obligations.
