选项:
A.the company’s prospects are improving.

the company’s debt/equity has moved beyond the optimal range.
解释:

costs of financial distress may outweigh any tax benefits to the use of debt.
老师,请您帮我解答:
- 解析里说的The costs of financial distress may outweigh any tax benefits to the use of debt(破产的代价远远大于税盾的好处),这话跟题目有什么关系?
- A选项为啥不对?我的理解是公司前景变好,有信心及能力支持更多债务,就像是基础班讲义110页写的mature business-leverage may increase as company is able to support more debt.
