Financial Analysis
● The debt-to-equity ratio is an
important measure of the state of a
company’s capital structure.
Debt-to-Equity Ratio = Total Liab. ÷Total Equity
● When a company’s debt-to-equity
ratio is excessive, a large amount of
Example: Borrowing on
Long-term Note Payable
● ABC Co. signed a $100,000, 3 year
Note Payable which carried an 8%
annual interest rate. Payments are to
be made annually on December 31 of
each year for $38,803.35.
● What is the amount of the liability
(Note payable) after the first payment
is made?
Example continued...
● For Yr.1, the outstanding amount
borrowed is $100,000 (at 8%), so the
interest is:
❐ $8,000
● Payment is $38,803.35, so the
amount that will reduce the principal
is
❐ $30,803.35 [$38,803.35-$8,000]
● New outstanding principal amount is
❐ $100,000 - 30,803.35 = $69,196.65

Understanding Notes to
Financial Statements
● Effective-interest method of
amortization is required by GAAP.
(This method is in the Appendix.)
● Straight-line amortization may be
used if it is not materially different
from effective interest amortization.
● Most companies do not disclose the
method used for bond interest
amortization.

Calling a bond...
● If the bond is callable, the issuer
may decided to call the bond
(retire it before maturity).
● The liability and any remaining
premium or discount would be
removed from the books.
● The difference between cash
paid and Carrying value on that
date is recorded as an income
statement Gain (cash paid < CV)
or Loss (cash paid > CV).
