Lets understand ROCE, ROE, D/E and few other metrics by a very simple example.

Ramu sells Vadapav.
He started a biz with 2Lac. Thats equity.

To grow the business he took loan of 1 Lac. For buying equipment and Land.

So the total capital in the business is 3 Lac rupees.

1/15 Lets calculate Debt to equity (d/e) of Ramu's business first!

Debt/equity = Debt/equity.
Debt/equity = 1L/2L = 0.5

So in this case, Ramu has 0.5X of debt to his equity.
