Answer:

C. 7.4

Explanation:

Computation for the times interest earned ratio for the year

First step is to get the EBIT

Net income $42,000

Add Income tax expense $33,000

Add Interest expense $10,800

EBIT $85,800

Now let Compute the times interest earned ratio for the year using this formula

Times interest earned ratio=EBIT/Interest expense

Let plug in the formula

Times interest earned ratio=$85,800/$10,800

Times interest earned ratio=7.94

Therefore the times interest earned ratio for the year will be 7.94
