Debt Service Coverage Ratio

Summary

The Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) is a financial metric used to evaluate an entity's ability to pay its debt obligations from its net operating income.

Detailed Description

DSCR is calculated by dividing an entity's net operating income by its total debt service obligations. A DSCR greater than 1 indicates that the entity generates enough income to cover its debt payments, while a score below 1 shows that it does not. It is commonly used by lenders and investors to assess the creditworthiness of individuals or businesses.
