Question:

The CFO of a company decides to maintain the capital structure as 1/2. The finance raised from owners and shareholders is Rs. 300 crore. How much debt financing does he need?

Options:

600 crore

500 crore

250 crore

150 crore

Correct Answer:

150 crore

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (4) → 150 crore

Capital structure ratio = Debt : Equity = 1 : 2
Equity (owners’ funds) = ₹300 crore

Let debt = x
Then, according to the ratio,
x / 300 = 1 / 2
x = (300 × 1) / 2
x = ₹150 crore
