Expert Solution

Net income = increase in retained earnings + dividends

= 40000+2*15000

= 70000

 

PBT = Net income/(1-tax rate)

= 70000/ (1- 0.4)

=  $116,666.67 

 

EBIT = sales - cogs - depreciation

= 400000- 200000- 50000

= 150000

 

Interest expense = EBIT - PBT

= 150000- $116,666.67 

=  $ 33,333.33 

 

Cash coverage ratio =( Earnings Before Interest and Taxes + Non-Cash Expenses)/Interest Expense

= (150000+ 50000)/  $ 33,333.33 

= 6.00
