Which of the following is one of the alternatives company co-managers should consider in trying to improve their company's credit rating, especially if the company has a B- or C credit rating? (The financial measures used in determining company credit ratings are discussed in the Help document associated with page 5 of the Camera & Drone Journal.)

Temporarily reducing annual camera and drone output at the assembly facilities to save on assembly expenses and using the cash saved to repurchase shares of stock in the upcoming years--fewer shares of stock outstanding will conserve on the cash needed to pay dividends, thereby helping to boost the company's credit rating

Issuing additional shares of stock and using the proceeds to accelerate paying the remaining principal on any 5-year and 10-year loans--this will lower the company's interest costs, which, in turn, will help improve its interest coverage ratio and its debt-equity ratio

Repurchasing shares of the company's common stock; this improve the company's debt-equity percentages

Using a portion on the company's internal cash flows and new issues of common stock to pay higher dividends to shareholders

Withdrawing cash from the company's retained earnings account on the balance sheet and using it to accelerate the paying off the remaining principal on 5-year and 10-year bank loans--this will reduce interest costs and help boost the company's current ratio
