    5.79 times

    Explanation:

    The times interest earned ratio tells us the number of times the company's made earnings in multiple of its debt interest obligation.

    The formula for times earned interest ratio is the income before interest and taxes divided by the interest expense.

    income before tax is $302,634

    income before interest and taxes = $302,634+$63,228=$365,862.00

    times interest earned ratio=$365,862.00 / $63,228 = 5.79 times
