The Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (FCCR) is used to compute how many times a firm can pay its fixed costs with its income before interest and taxes.

A higher FCCR is preferred because it indicates a healthier and less risky business to invest in or loan to. A lower FCCR is a turnoff for creditors and investors because it indicates that the business can barely meet its monthly bills.
