Financial Planning

Capital Adequacy Ratio

Financial Decisions

Capital Structure

✅ Correct Option: 4

Option 1 -> Financial Planning refers to the broader process of determining financial goals and strategies, not specifically the mix of debt and equity.

Option 2 -> Capital Adequacy Ratio is a regulatory measure used primarily in banking to assess capital against risk-weighted assets, not the general composition of capital sources.

Option 3 -> Financial Decisions is a broad term encompassing all monetary choices a company makes, including investment, financing, and dividend decisions, but doesn't specifically identify the debt-equity mix.

Option 4 -> Capital Structure specifically refers to the proportion of debt and equity used to finance a company's assets and operations.

Hence, Option 4: Capital Structure -> The statement "60% equity and 40% debt" directly describes the capital structure, which is the specific mix or composition of debt and equity financing that a company uses. Capital structure is a fundamental concept in corporate finance that determines how a company funds its overall operations and growth. -> correct
