Respuesta :

Answer: Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Operating income =​ $80,000

Interest expense = $15,000

Average number of shares of outstanding stock during the year = 30,000 shares

Times interest earned ratio = [tex]\frac{Net\ Income\ before\ tax}{Interest\ Expense}[/tex]

=[tex]\frac{80000}{15000}[/tex]

= 5.33

So, the nearest value in the options is 5.0.

Therefore, option (d) is correct.
