neutral  MikeGarcia: Sergio: "available" quiere decir que las líneas de crédito están disponibles para ser utillizadas; "oustanding" quiere decir (en la jerga financiera) que están vigentes y usadas;"dispuestas" se usa en España en el lenguaje bancario como "utilizadas".

  -> ok, thx!
agree  Matthew Hoffman: acevalia: you're only looking at the dictionary entry. It's true that normally "disponibles" would mean available, but "dispuestos" means "ready" and "ready to be sold" is not normal English. "Available for sale" is better.

Explanation:
In this context, I believe "available" would be the best translation. "Existing" and "outstanding" would be like "existente" or "destacado" and neither would make sense in terms of a price (importe), which is what I believe you want here.

Example sentence(s):
  • We have various watches available for less than $50 each.
  • Our customer support staff is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
