How many times your income covers the annual interest on your debt.
Interest coverage divides your annual income by the annual interest you owe on all debt. A higher number means interest is a small, manageable share of what you earn; a low number signals that debt costs are crowding out everything else.
$120,000 of income against $8,000 of annual interest is 15× coverage.
