[ABSTRAK
Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis restrukturisasi utang pada PT AFS yang bergerak di bidang pelayaran. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah dengan membandingkan restrukturisasi utang yang telah dilakukan oleh PT AFS melalui penjualan aset dengan alternatif lain yaitu metode equity conversion. Perbandingan dilakukan terhadap arus kas pembayaran utang, metode restrukturisasi yang lebih menguntungkan jika diukur dari time value of money dan metode restrukturisasi yang lebih baik pengaruhnya ke kinerja keuangan perusahaan jika diukur dari rasio keuangan. Hasil dari penelitian memperlihatkan bahwa metode penjualan aset membayar lebih banyak utang pada awal masa pembayaran utang daripada metode equity conversion. Jika diukur dari time value of money, restrukturisasi dengan metode penjualan aset akan lebih menguntungkan daripada restrukturisasi dengan metode equity coversion karena menghasilkan present value yang lebih kecil. Total debt ratio memperlihatkan metode equity conversion lebih baik pengaruhnya ke kinerja keuangan perusahaan daripada metode penjualan aset. Current ratio, cash ratio, interest coverage ratio dan profit margin memperlihatkan metode penjualan aset lebih baik pengaruhnya terhadap kinerja keuangan perusahaan daripada metode equity conversion.
