Answer:

c. 30.0%

Explanation:

FA = fixed assets

FA / Sales = fixed assets / net sales.

75% of assets generates 250 millions in sales

full capacity will use 100% of the fixed assets capacity. Therefore sales for:

250,000 / .075 = 333,33 millions

The target fixed asset turnover should be of:

100,000 / 333,33 = 0,3000030000 = 30%
