Select: 1Save Answer Sells $5,000 (000) of their Long-term assets Purchases assets at a cost of $15,000 (000) Retires $20,000 (000) in long-term debt Liquidates the entire inventory

The activity that will expose Baldwin to the most risk of needing an emergency loan is:

Retires $20,000 (000) in long-term debt

Explanation:

If Baldwin wants to retire the long-term debt of $20 million, it requires an emergency loan because the available cash is not enough to settle the long-term debt.  Emergency loans charge higher interest rates.  Given the risk of debt default, putting itself in the position of having to retiring $20 million at a time is not so palatable.  Such long-term debts are better retired with long-term finance sources, like issuing shares.
