Exhibit 12
RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES. We have calculated Bottling LLC’s ratio of earnings to fixed charges in the following table by dividing earnings by fixed charges. For this purpose, earnings are before taxes, noncontrolling interest and income or loss recognized from equity investments reduced by the distributed income from equity investments plus fixed charges (excluding capitalized interest). Fixed charges include interest expense, capitalized interest and one-third of net rent which is the portion of the rent deemed representative of the interest factor.
