The formula for Financial Leverage is given as EBIT/EBIT-I

Can anybody explain this.

FL=EBIT/EBT

EBIT=earnings before interest & tax

EBT=earnigs before Tax

So,EBIT-I means earnings before interest & tax minus Interest...that is ..earnigs before Tax

"I" here means interest

Consider example-:

EBIT=Rs.100000

10% debentures=Rs.10000

calculate EBT??

EBT=EBIT-Interest=100000 minus 1000 [10% of 10000]=Rs.99000

EBT can be expressed as EBIT - I.

Thus, instead of EBT in the denominator, it is substitued with EBIT - I
