Dear Statalisters:

I have a dummy variable "small_profit" and use the -tabulate- command
for several countries (see output excerpt below).

bysort country: tabulate small_profit

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-> country = AUS

small_profi |
          t |      Freq.     Percent        Cum.
------------+-----------------------------------
          0 |      2,651       56.52       56.52
          1 |      2,039       43.48      100.00
------------+-----------------------------------
      Total |      4,690      100.00

I am looking for a way to get the ratio: number of "1"/number of "0".

I read the help of -tabulate- and -table- but did not find a solution. 

Would you have any thoughts?

Best regards

Hervé Stolowy
