Buyback of Shares -DEBT-EQUITY TEST .

Accountancy

i had a doubt relating to buyback , In ICAI module , ILLUSTRATION 3 of Exercise , Current Liabilities is INCLUDED as a part of DEBT in calculation OF DEBT-EQUITY RATIO TEST . Should current liability be included as a part of debt for such calculation ? Same way current maturities of long term borrowings which is a current liability has been taken as debt for calculation debt-equity ratio in illustration 12 by sir .

loans are split into current and noncurrent portions - both of them should be considered as debt

if the question states only "other current liabilities" , should that be assumed as a loan and included as debt in the calculation of DEBT-EQUITY RATIO TEST. If so should an assumption be given in the exam in this regard ?

Question will usually state the current portion of long term debt. Its always preferable to explain your solutions through assumptions made.
