If the firm must retire $400,000 of debt for the sinking fund each year, what is its “fixed-payment cash-coverage ratio” (the ratio of cash flow to interest plus other fixed debt payments)? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) |
Fixed-payment cash-coverage ratio |
a. Interest = Interest % * Face value of debt = 9% * 11000000 | 990000 |
Times interest earned = EBIT / Interest = 2000000 / 990000 | 2.02 |
b. Cash coverage = ( EBIT + Non cash expense ) / Interest expense = ( 2000000 + 300000 ) / 990000 | 2.32 |
c. Fixed payment cash coverage ratio = ( EBIT + Non cash expense + Fixed debt payment ) / ( Interest expense + Fixed debt payment ) = ( 2000000 + 300000 + 400000 ) / ( 990000 + 400000 ) | 1.94 |
