Correct answer = A

"Leases and Off-Balance Sheet Debt," Gerald I. White, Ashwinpaul C. Sondhi, and Dov Fried
2008 Modular Level I, Vol. 3, pp. 522-523
Study Session 9-40-b

The adjustments for operating leases would increase the amount of total debt in the debt-equity ratio, thus increasing the ratio; the estimated lease interest expense would lower the interest coverage ratio.
