Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) Formula

DSCR=Net Operating Income (NOI)Total Debt Service=NOIPrincipal+Interest\text{DSCR} = \frac{\text{Net Operating Income (NOI)}}{\text{Total Debt Service}} = \frac{\text{NOI}}{\text{Principal} + \text{Interest}}

DSCR is calculated by dividing annual Net Operating Income (NOI) by total annual principal and interest debt service payments.
