Sarah R asked:


Im having trouble determining the total for the debt ratio of total debt divided by total assets. I need Wal-Marts total debt, but not sure what categories on the balance sheet are included.

Do I add total current liabilities, long term debt, long term obligations under capital leases, deferred income taxes and other, minority interest? I just need to know what to add up to get the total debt for Wal-Mart 2008. Thank you!

my debt ratio is 27.00%… i personally bring home $3,000 a month (my husband brings home about the same). i have no credit, my husband has pretty bad credit. will debt to income ratio be a factor in buying a house? how likely am i going to be able to buy a house with just debt ratio?
