Modelling Question

If acquiring an already-operating infrastructure asset, when calculating CFADS what is the equity and the debt amount? 

Assuming I acquire an infrastructure asset for 10x LTM EBITDA with 60% debt and 40% equity. Obviously in cash terms, the cash would go to vendors so what do I include in debt/equity in CFADS formula? 

Then when thinking about IRRs, what is the financing (debt/equity) assumptions that would go into the levered IRR
