Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Proprietary Ratio: Measures the proportion of shareholders’ equity to total assets, indicating the financial stability of the business. - Interest Coverage Ratio: Assesses the ability of the business to meet its interest obligations, which is a key indicator of solvency. - Total Asset to Debt Ratio: Shows the extent to which a business’s assets can cover its debts, crucial for solvency evaluation. - Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio: This ratio measures the efficiency of fixed assets in generating sales, which is related to operational performance rather than solvency.
