You often see the debt to equity ratio called the gearing ratio, although technically it would be more correct to refer to it as a gearing ratio. Gearing simply refers to financial leverage. Gearing ratios focus more heavily on the concept of leverage than other ratios used in accounting or investment analysis.his difference is embodied in the difference between the debt ratio and the debt to equity ratio. Put another way, leverage refers to the use of debt. Gearing is a type of leverage analysis that incorporates owner's equity, often expressed as a ratio in financial analysis.
Even when AARP was founded in 1958, most people didn't retire at 50. (Hell, Ike was still president at 70). Be honest AARP -- your membership begins at 50 so your magazine can demand higher advertising rates -- the bigger the circulation, the higher the revenue. Here's a better idea -- just call it AAP -- the American Association of Persons.
AARP is a 501c4 non-profit organization with a mission to enhance the quality of life for all as they age. The association advocates for positive social change and delivers value to members through information, advocacy and service. With nearly 38 million members, AARP is one of the most powerful lobbying groups in the United States.
