Explanation / Answer

question 9.

EBDIT (earning before depreciation; interest and tax) = $435000

less:-

cost and depreciation = ($362500)

EBIT = $72500

INTEREST =$12500

FIRMS TIMES INTEREST EARNED RATIO (EBIT / INTEREST) =5.8TIMES

I.E. 5.8times a firms earnings can cover the interest. higher the ratio safer the debt.

7.

debt ratio = total liabilities / total assets

total liabilities = 0.4* $720000

total debt can be borrowed = $288000
