The interest expense is accounted for in the income statement. This is done on an accrual basis, so there may actually be interest on the income statement that has not actually been paid from cash flow to date as one reason. Secondly, the debts obtained from a credit bureau shows full principle and interest payments being serviced. If the interest expense found on the income statement is not added back, then the lender would be double counting the interest being paid on the loans (once from the income statement and once from the credit bureau). This double counting of interest payments could keep a deal that should be approved from cash flowing, thus causing the lender to decline the deal. Also, you will want to add back depreciation and carry forward expenses as well as those are not actual decreases in cash flow for the current year. I hope this helps. I'm a business banker for a major bank.

The cash coverage ratio is useful for determining the amount of cash available to pay for interest, and is expressed as a ratio of the cash available to the amount of interest to be paid.To calculate the cash coverage ratio, take the earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) from the income statement, add back to it all non-cash expenses included in EBIT (such as depreciation and amortization), and divide by the interest expense. The formula is: Earnings Before Interest and Taxes + Non-Cash Expenses Interest Expense.
sales to expense ratio should be under 10% of your net sales, on a monthly basis

operating income vefore interest and income taxes / annual interest expense
Debt Service Ratio and Debt Coverage Ratio mean the same thing. To calculate, * Add back any interest expense to get 'Cashflow Available to Pay Debt'. * Divide Cashflow Available to Pay Debt' by the debt payments for the period. * An answer of 1.0 or better means there is just enough cashflow to cover the debt. * Most lenders want to see 1.2 to 1.3 for a business Example: Net Income for the year $5,000 after a deduction of $10,000 interest expense. Debt payments of $1,200 per month. ($1,200 x 12 =$14,400 per year) Cashflow Available to pay Debt $5,000 plus $10,000 equals $15,000. Debt Service Ratio: $15,000/$14,400 1.04 Probably not enough to keep the commercial lenders happy.

The times interest earned ratio is a financial metric that indicates a company's ability to meet its interest obligations with its operating income. It is calculated by dividing earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) by interest expense. A higher ratio indicates a company is better able to cover its interest payments.
