Requirement-(a), Full Capacity Sales
Full Capacity Sales = Current Sales / Percentage capacity of operation
= $2,000,000,000 / 0.85
= $2,352,941,176.47
Requirement (b), Target fixed assets/sales ratio
Fixed Assets / Sales Ratio = [Fixed Assets / Sales] x 100
= [$500,000,000 / $2,352,941,176.47] x 100
= 21.25%
Requirement (c), Increase in fixed assets will the company need to meet its target fixed assets/sales ratio
New Sales = $2,400,000,000 [$2,000,000,000 x 120%]
Sales at full capacity = $2,352,941,176.47
Therefore, the Increase in fixed assets will the company need to meet its target fixed assets/sales ratio = [New sales – Sales at full capacity] x Fixed Asset to sales ratio
= [$2,400,000,000 - $2,352,941,176.47] x 21.25%
= $47,058,824 x 21.25%
= $10,000,000.
