Debt is not an ownership interest but equity represents ownership
Equity holders are compensated in form of dividends which are tax deductible while debt holders’ payments are in form of interest payments which are tax deductible
Debt is a liability to the firm unlike in the case of equity where the firm is under no obligation to pay dividends
