Respuesta :

Answer:

Ans. A) 104 times

Explanation:

Hi, the formula that you are looking for for times interest earned (TIE) is:

[tex]TIE=\frac{EBIT}{InterestsExpense}[/tex]

And the EBIT (earnings before interests and taxes) is:

[tex]EBIT=Net Income+Interests+Taxes[/tex]

[tex]EBIT=74,800+11,700+35,100=121,600[/tex]

Since the interest expense is $11,700 and the EBIT is $121,600, we can say that the TIE ratio is:

[tex]TIE=\frac{121,600}{11,700} =10.39316239=10.4[/tex]

Best of luck.
