Debt to equity divides total borrowings by total shareholder equity at the period end. Total borrowings are short-term debt plus long-term debt, including capital lease obligations. Non-debt liabilities such as accounts payable and deferred revenue are excluded. A period is omitted when equity is negative, because the ratio is not meaningful then.
