I'm sorry, but it seems that the data provided for interest coverage for Alphabet Inc is incomplete. In order to provide a detailed and comprehensive analysis of the interest coverage, I would need the specific figures for each period mentioned. The interest coverage ratio is calculated by dividing the earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) by the interest expense. Without the actual values, it is not possible to perform the analysis. If you could provide the necessary data, I would be happy to assist you in analyzing Alphabet Inc's interest coverage in detail.
