A firm has net income of $390, interest expense of $40 and depreciation of $50. The corporate tax rate is 35 percent. What is the Cash Coverage Ratio?
a)9.75
b)10.67
c)11.00
d)14.41
e)17.25
My Attempt to the Question
Cash Coverage Ratio = (EBIT + Depreciation)/ Interest
EBIT = 390*35% = 526.50
Cash Coverage Ratio = (526.50+50)/40 = 14.41
Can you explain to me if my approach was correct and help me understand the correct way to approach this kind of question.
Thanks In Advance
