TIE 2.47

Explanation:

\frac{EBIT}{InterestExpense} = $Times Interest Earned

Our first step will be calculate the interest expense

350,000 debt outstanding * 12% rate = 42,000

Next, we need the EBIT which means Earnings Before Interest and Taxes.

Using the net profit margin of 3% we can get the net income

This means 3% of sales become net income

We are going to apply this to Morris sales to get the net income

1,750,000 * 0.03 = 52,500

Now this include the interest and taxes, we need to get the Earning before those two concepts so:

\frac{NetIncome}{1-Tax Rate} + $Interest Expense = Earnings Before Interest and Taxes

52,500/(1-0.40)+42,000 = 87,500 + 42,000 = 129,500

Now we got everything needed for the TIE

129,500/52,500 = 2.47
