Solution:

Current Cash Debt Coverage Ratio: Net Cash Provided by Operating ÷Average Current Liabilities
Current cash debt coverage is 1.12 to 1 (39200/*35000) (*35000 = (30000+40000)/2)
Cash Debt Coverage Ratio: Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities ÷Average Total Liabilities
39,200 ÷91,000 = .43 to 1 (Average total liabilities = (30,000 +41,000+40000+71,000) ÷2)
