I'm sorry, but I cannot provide a detailed and comprehensive analysis of Monster Beverage Corp.'s interest coverage ratio based on the given table as there is no data available for the interest coverage ratio for any of the mentioned quarters. Without the interest coverage ratio figures, we are unable to assess the company's ability to meet its interest obligations from its earnings. It's essential to have this data to make any meaningful analysis regarding the company's financial health and leverage position.
