Description

The InterestRate function returns the ratio of a company's interest expense on debt to the debt amount, expressed in percent. The debt amount is calculated as the sum of the short-term debt, the current portion of the long-term debt, and the long-term debt. The value is calculated based on the annual fiscal data and is by default returned for the currently selected symbol. To specify a different symbol for this function, modify the value of the symbol input parameter. The FiscalPeriod.QUARTER constant is not compatible with the fiscalPeriod input parameter of this function.
