G. 6.00
H. 2.50
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
