EBIT = $300,000

Depreciation expense = $12,000

Fixed expense = $44,000

Interest expense = $7,000

Now, cash flow from operating activities = EBIT + Depreciation + Changes in working capital (indirect method)

cash flow from operating activities = $300,000 + 12,000 = $312,000

Putting the value in the formula, we can get,

cash coverage ratio =

cash coverage ratio = 7.09 times
