If Chester's current cash balance is $26,337 (000) and Cash Flows From Operations next period are unchanged from this period, which of the following activities will expose Chester to the most risk of needing an emergency loan? a. Issues 10,000 shares of stock at the current stock price
b. Sells $10,000,000 of their Long-Term Assets
c. Purchases assets at a cost of $25,000,000
d. Retires $10,000,000 in Long-Term Debt

The correct option is c. Purchases assets at a cost of $25,000,000.

Explanation:

An emergency loan can be described as a loan that can obtained on short notice by a borrower in to cover unexpected costs.

From the options, purchasing assets at a cost of $25,000,000 will leave Chester in a serious liquidity position as the it will take 94.92% [i.e. ($25,000,000 / $26,337,000) * 100] of its current cash balance and leave the company with just $1,337 current cash balance.

Because the next period's Cash Flows From Operations are expected to be the same as this period's, purchasing assets at a cost of $25,000,000 puts Chester at the greatest danger of needing an emergency loan.

Therefore, the correct option is c. Purchases assets at a cost of $25,000,000.
