Answer:

a. an increased risk of bankruptcy for acquiring firms.

Explanation:

When a firm acquires a business through the purchase of a company's assets using a high level of debt, the acquiring firm would generally be responsible for all the target company's debts and liabilities.

Thus, the use of high levels of debt in acquisitions will contribute to an increased risk of bankruptcy for acquiring firms.
