Accounting

When calculating the debt equity ratio I come across two formulas:

1. D/E= Total Debt/Total Equity

2. D/E= Total Liabilities/Total Equity

Thus I am confused if :

1. those are the same thing

2. When considering total debt ( do we just include long-term loan, short-term loan and bank overdraft) or should i add all my liabilities both non current and current?

please assist.
