dc.description.abstract This Thesis aims to investigate the capital structure of automobile manufacturing industries in two developed countries of Germany and Japan during different crises between 2007 and 2013. Capital (or Financial) Ratio Analysis is conducted to investigate the impact of capital and leverage ratios of Debt to Equity, Total Debt to Total Assets, and Current Ratio on their capital structure strategies during the 2007 to 2013, to observe the effects of different world crisis on them. The results indicate that car manufacturing companies are considered to be capital intensive industries and use a large number of debts to finance their operations. Capital structure is varying from country to another country because of economic conditions. In both Germany and Japan, car manufacturing corporations showed that in times of insufficient capital they relied on banks. However, nowadays in European car manufacturing countries, there is no shortage of capital in the capital market and they continued to finance themselves relatively even though facing economic and natural crises. Keywords: Capital structure, equity, debt, ratio analysis, Germany, Japon. Automobile sector en_US
dc.description.abstract ÖZ : Bu tez ampirik olarak Almanya ve Japonya otomobil sektörlerinin sermaye yapısını 2007 ile 2013 yılları arası kriz dönemlerindeki finansal değerlerine göre ölçer. Sermaye oranları analizi kullanılarak borç varlık oranına göre sermaye ve kaldıraç oranları tahmin edilmiştir. Ampirik bulgular ilgili otomobil imalat sektöründeki firmalar sermaye yoğunluğuna göre çalışmakta ve büyük miktarda borç kullanmaktadırlar. Sermaye yapısı ülkeden ülkeye ekonomik durumlar itibarıyle değişmektedir. Hem Almanya hemde Japonya‘daki otomobil firmaları sermaye yetersizliklerini banklardan alınan borçlarla gidermektedirler. Fakat bugünlerde Avrupa‘daki otomobil firmaları göreceli olarak daha az sermaye zorluğu çekmektedir. Anahtar kelimeler: Sermaye yapısı, özvarlık, değerler, oran analizi, Almanya, Japonya, otomobil sektörü. en_US
