Blackrock Muniyield's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Blackrock Muniyield manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Blackrock Muniyield Quality has 194.25 M in debt with debt to equity (D/E) ratio of 0.71, which is OK given its current industry classification. Blackrock Muniyield has a current ratio of 0.09, suggesting that it has not enough short term capital to pay financial commitments when the payables are due. Debt can assist Blackrock Muniyield until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Blackrock Muniyield's shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like Blackrock Muniyield sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Blackrock to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Blackrock Muniyield's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.
