Financial Leverage
The use of borrowed funds to increase the potential return on investment. While leverage can amplify profits, it also magnifies losses if returns fail to exceed interest costs. Accountants track leverage ratios to assess a company’s risk exposure and ability to service its debt obligations effectively.
