Answer: 1. 18 times
2. Park is in better position
Explanation:
1. Times interest earned is a financial ratio that measures interest coverage. It's essentially to check if a company can pay it's debt payments and is calculated by either EBIT or EBITDA divided by the total interest expense. The higher the better and anything above 2.5 times is usually considered.
Calculating would therefore be,
= $6,120,000 /$340,000
= 18 times.
2. As mentioned in the first answer, for the Times interest earned, the higher it is, the more favourable it is. So Park Company will be considered safer and are most definitely in a better or worse position than its competitor to make interest payments if the economy turns bad. The fact that theirs is 18 means that they can pay off their interest expense 5 times more than their competitor who can only repay 12 times.

Answer:
product B
Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
<u>Particulars Product A Product B Product C
</u>
Selling Price $5.00 $3.00 $5.00
Less: Variable cost per unit ($3.50) ($2.00) ($2.00)
Contribution per unit $1.50 $1.00 $3.00
Machine hours per unit 0.75 0.25 1
Contribution per machine hour $2.00 $4.00 $3.00
($1.50 ÷ 0.75) ($1.00 ÷ 0.25) ($3.00 ÷ 1)
The product B should be produced as it has the highest contribution per machine hour
Answer:
a) $1,918.17
b) 16.8 months
C) Yes, Capstone Turbine will remain in business.
Explanation:
a) To find the monthly cash expenses, we have:
Monthly cash expenses = negative cash flow from operations / 12
= 23018 / 12
= $1,918.17
b) To find the ratio of cash to monthly cash expenses, we have:
Ratio of cash to monthly cash expenses = Year end cash / monthly cash expenses
= $32,221 / $1,918.17
= 16.797
≈ 16.8 months
c) Yes, Capstone Turbine will remain in business because the calculated ratio above shows that they have cash to continue operations for approximately 16.8 months.
