correct option is C. 95.36 percent

Explanation:

given data

capital intensity ratio = 0.87

total assets = $48,900

current sales = $53,600

solution

first we get here Sales at full capacity by Capital Intensity Ratio that is

Capital Intensity Ratio = Total Assets ÷  Sales   ..................1

put here value and we get

Sales  = [tex]\frac{48900}{0.87}[/tex]  

Sales  = $56,206.90

and

now we get Level of capacity is the firm currently operating that is express as

Level of capacity = Current sales ÷ Sales at full capacity  .................2

put here value and we get

Level of capacity = [tex]\frac{53600}{56206.90}[/tex]  

Level of capacity =  95.36%

so correct option is C. 95.36 percent

Level of capacity firm currently operating is 95.36%

Level of capacity:

Given:

Capital intensity ratio = 0.87

Total assets = $48,900

Current sales = $53,600

Find:

Level of capacity

Capital Intensity Ratio = [tex]\frac{Total \ assets}{sales}[/tex]

0.87 = 48900 ÷ Total sales

Total sales = $56,206.90

Level of capacity = Current sales / Sales

Level of capacity = 53600 / 56206.9

Level of capacity =  95.36%
