Unformatted text preview: million (see calculations below). 4. What is the impact on Starbucks’ 2009 debt-to-equity ratio of adding the
present value of its operating leases to the liability section of its 2009
balance sheet?
• Starbucks’ 2009 debt-to-equity ratio before the adjustments is 0.83
($2,531.1 / 3,045.7). After the adjustment it jumps to 1.96 ($5,966.0
/ 3,045.7).
5. Would making the adjustment in #4 change your opinion about Starbucks’
credit worthiness?
• Probably not since Starbucks tends to generate a lot of operating
cash flows ($1,389.0 million in 2009), enough to easily cover its
operating lease obligations. Page 13 of 21 END-OF-CHAPTER MATERIAL
