Debt to total assets, also known as simply debt ratio, is calculated by taking the total liabilities for the company divided by the total assets for the company; this information is found on the company’s balance sheet. This ratio determines the portion of debts a company has that are paid and financed through its debt. For Huffman Trucking the calculation would look like this for 2011: ($90,283+$71,365)/$267,265 = $161,648/$267,265 = 0.6048 or 60.48% (Huffman Trucking, 2013).

This ratio determines the rate and ability in which the company is able to pay its debts off.
