    The answer is B.

    Explanation:

    Cash flow adequacy ratio is used to determine if cash flows generated from operating activities in a period are enough to repay the amount used to borrow non-current assets when due. A cash flow of 1 or greater than 1 means that the business is able to pay its debt comfortably while cash flow less than 1 means there is difficulty.

    Fixed charge ratio measures if a business is able to cover its fixed finance cost or fixed interest payment The formula is EBIT/interest payment.
