However, even people who haven't been using credit long may have a high FICO Score, depending on how the rest of the credit report looks.…

The lender will want to know how you will be repaying your loan. Capital is the money you have personally invested in the business.

    My credit score is the key to my financial future. It is the key that will open doors that will allow me to buy my own home, obtain car insurance, get lower interest rates on loans that I apply for, and to even buy a cell phone. Credit scores are used by potential lenders to gather information from credit reports, provided by three credit bureaus: Experian, TransUnion and Equifax, to represent individual creditworthiness. Credit scores are broken down into 5 components; payment history, amounts owed, types of credit, and length of credit history and all play an important role in determining how credit scores are calculated. Scores generally range from 300-850, with 300 being the poorest possible score and 850 being the highest and best possible score.…

    Before approving a commercial loan, a bank will look at all of these factors with the primary emphasis being the cash flow of the borrower. A typical measurement of repayment ability is the debt service coverage ratio. A credit analyst at a bank will measure the cash generated by a business (before interest expense and excluding depreciation and any other non-cash or extraordinary expenses). The debt service coverage ratio divides this cash flow amount by the debt service (both principal and interest payments on all loans) that will be required to be met. Commercial Bankers like to see debt service coverage of at least 120 percent.
