TOTAL LIABILITIES TO NET WORTH

This ratio expresses the relationship between the capital contributed by creditors and the capital contributed to the firm by owners. This provides an indication of the ability of a firm to meet creditor obligations and the lower the ratio the better financial condition the firm is thought to be in. A high ratio may signal potential cash shortage and a low ratio firm usually has greater ability to borrow debt in the future.
