    Level of sales at full capacity = $2,666,666,666.67

    Explanation:

    75 % of fixed assets = 500,000,000

    1% = 500,000,000/75

    100% of fixed asset = 500,000,000/75 * 100 = 666,666,666.67

    Fixed assets at 100% capacity = 666,666,666.67

    If $500,000,000 worth of fixed asset = $ 2,000,000,000 sales

    $1 fixed asset = (2,000,000,000 / 500,000,000) sales

    Then 666,666,666.67 fixed asset would produces

    (2,000,000,000 / 500,000,000) * 666,666,666.67 = 2,666,666,666.67 sales

    Level of sales at full capacity = $2,666,666,666.67
