Respuesta :

Times interest earned ratio is calculated with the help of following formula:


Times interest earned ratio = Income before interest and tax / Interest


Income before interest and tax is calculated with the help of following formula:

Income before interest and tax = Sales – Cost of Goods Sold- Depreciation

Income before interest and tax = 438000-369000-37400 = 31,600


Hence, Times interest earned ratio = Income before interest and tax / Interest = 31600 / 13800 = 2.29 times
