Answer :

Answer:

7.86

Explanation:

Given,

Net income = $16,481

Tax rate = 21 %

interest expense =  $3,681

Depreciation expense = $4,385

Cash Coverage ratio =[tex]\dfrac{EBIT+ Non-cash Expense}{interest expense}[/tex]

EBIT = Expense before tax

Cash Coverage ratio =[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{16,481}{1-0.21}+ 4385+3681}{3681}[/tex]

Cash Coverage ratio =[tex]\dfrac{28928.025}{3681}[/tex]

Cash Coverage ratio =7.86

Hence, the cash coverage ratio is equal to 7.86.
