I hope my question is specific and it is not a repeat question.
From the CA Exam perspective can anyone please tell me which formula should I use in exam if a question comes on DEBT/EQITY Ratio. There are 3-4 formulas available in the books, which are as follows:
1) Long Term Debt/ (Shareholders Funds+ Long Term Debt)
2)Long Term Debt/ Owner's Equities
3) External Equities/ Internal Equities or All Debts/Owner's Funds
Which one should one be using for Financial Management, IPCC exam?

Equity = Comapy Funds which include Share Capital and reserves
Debt = All external obligations like Debentures, loans
All debts/Owner's funds is the most appropriate formula

& IF IN EXAM ,QUESTION SPECIFICALLY PROVIDES ANY DIFFERENT RATIO e.g D/E RATIO =DEBT / (DEBT + EQUITY)
THEN USE THE GIVEN RATIO
